Intro
D#
[Verse A]
D#
I roll out every mornin' I drink my coffee on the run
G#
Workin' for the man just the way my daddy done
D#
Well the money I'm makin' ain't buyin' much bacon
A#7
but when payday comes along
G#7 A#7 D# D#7 D# D#7
Sometimes I gotta' do somethin' even if it's wrong
[Verse B]
D#
The telephone keeps ringin' and it gets under my skin
G#
They all call to ask me when I'll send the money in
D# A#7
But AT&T does a favor for me and takes a message at the tone
G#7 A#7 D# D#m D# D#m
Sometimes I gotta' do somethin' even if it's wrong
[Chorus]
G# C#7 G# C#7
Seems the road is gettin' rougher as I roll on up the hill
G# C#7 G# C#7
High times passin' by me just like I was standin' still
G# C#7 G# C#7
But I'm almost to the top and I'll go until I drop
G# C# A#7 D#
Some fall by the wayside but I've gone to far to stop
[Verse A]
D#
The woman of my dreams she was like a livin' doll
G#
I sent her far away when she set me for a fall
D#
She was a digger and the bills got bigger and I was up against the
A#7
wall
G#7 A#7 D# D#7 D# D#7
Sometimes you gotta' do somethin' even if it's wrong
[Verse B]
G# C#7 G# C#7
Now I hear those wolves a howlin' I can't get no sleep at all
G# C#7 G# C#7
The Good Lord knows I'm tired of robbin' Peter to pay Paul
G# C#7 G# C#7
From the grind stone to the gravestone is it really worth it all
G# C# A#7 D#
Sometimes you gotta' do somethin' even if it's wrong
