Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Workin' long days, workin' long nights,
To make ends meet, oh, it's a tough fight.
Got a pocketful of dreams, but they're hard to chase,
When life's a constant race on minimum wage.
(Chorus)
Just a G.E.D., not much to show,
But I've got a heart full of love, ready to grow.
Can't afford the fancy dates or the silver stage,
But our love is richer than any wage.
(Verse 2)
He's learning the trade, working with steel,
In the heat and the sparks, there's a future he can feel.
But his wallet's still thin, his bank account lean,
Yet, in his eyes, I'm his queen.
(Chorus)
Can't buy me diamonds, can't buy me gold,
But the love in his heart is a sight to behold.
We can't live on dreams, but we manage to engage,
Finding joy in our world on a humble wage.
(Bridge)
We're dreaming of tomorrow under a sky so vast,
Making memories on a budget, learning from the past.
Life may be tough, our path a rugged range,
But we're rich in love, if not in wage.
(Verse 3)
We may cross the border, just for a day,
Where the food is cheap, and the music plays.
No fancy restaurants, no champagne to uncork,
But we've got love, and that's enough to walk the walk.
(Chorus)
It's not about the money, not about the price,
Our love is the treasure, our hearts the dice.
We're making the most of what we gauge,
Love is our wealth despite the minimum wage.
(Outro)
Our pockets may be empty; our dreams may seem far,
But with each other, we'll shine like a star.
In our humble world, love is the sage,
Guiding us through life on minimum wage.
