JOE VASATURO

Lyrics

Verse 1
Another dawn, and off I go,
Shoes hit the floor, as the cold wind blows.
Hands are freezing, and the days are long,
Got an achin' back, but I gotta be strong.

The clock keeps ticking, but I'm still stuck,
Tryin' ta pay my bills, my life's stuck in a rut
Boss man’s watching, with eyes that can't feel
There's no covering up, these wounds that won't heal

Chorus
Slaving away, never getting ahead,
Living paycheck to paycheck, my souls feelin' dead.
Sweat on my face, body full of scars and pain,
I'm tryin' to break free, but I’m stuck!
Stuck in these chains
Stuck in these chains

Verse
I used to dream of highway's wide,
Freedom in the sunset, where I can hide.
But here I am, in this factory hum,
Trading my youth till every workday’s done.

kids at home, momma’s gotta stay strong,
But bills keep piling up, all the year long.
A saxophone cries, that hurtful sound,
Echoes my world, of being thrown on the ground

Chorus
Slaving away, never getting ahead,
Living paycheck to paycheck, my souls feelin' dead.
Sweat on my face, body full of scars and pain,
I'm tryin' to break free, but I’m stuck!
Stuck in these chains
Stuck in these chains

Bridge
Maybe someday the tide will turn,
Until then I guess I'll watch my life burn.
For every broken dream, that I've had in my head
Is there still hope on this relentless road ahead.

Chorus
Slaving away, never getting ahead,
Living paycheck to paycheck, my souls feelin' dead.
Sweat on my face, body full of scars and pain,
I'm tryin' to break free, but I’m stuck!
Stuck in these chains
Stuck in these chains
