HOW DO WE DO IT
Terry Kincaid and Mariam
© BMI 2006
Gotta? keep your head on straight, your eyes on the road
You know we?re carryin? a heavy load
Always watchin? for the man, dealin? with the stress
Fightin with your boss and the IRS
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Nothin? left in your pocket, but one thin dime
How do we do it
How do we do it, oh yea, how do we do it
We?re just getting through the day lord, to make it to the night
Every damn minute it?s a helluva? fight
How do we do it, yea, yea, how do we do it
Well I wake up in the morning at the break of dawn
Prayin? like a sinner that my headache was gone
Ten more hours, out there in the cold
Ain?t getting? any better, it?s just makin? me old
But each and every evening, I get it right
With a shot of Tequila and a beer on the side
That?s how we do it
We all gotta? get by, the best that we can
Find a little honey yea, to hold our hand
Spend a little time, make a little love
Hopin? all the while, it?s gonna be enough
Knowin? when to sneak out, and call it a night
Tryin? to get it done, without causin? a fight
That's how do we do it
