(Verse 1)
Lord’ save me from this run around
Been shopping my resume all over town
I got my degree but I can’t find a job
Standin’ all day long in a hungry mob
(Chorus)
Buttondown blues
Got me shaking
Look what a toll it’s takin,
Oh’ my head is achin,
Come on, baby come’ baby come to me
Is it any wonder I can survive
Livin’ this life of mine nine to five
Your lovin’ keeps me alive
With these Buttondown Blues
(Verse 2)
Just got me a boss ooo he cuts to the quick
Chip on his shoulder, he’s got a bone to pick
Chews me out, everyday of the week
(Verse 3)
Can’t win for losin’, thought I paid my dues
I’d never be choosin, these Buttondown Blues,
I need a winnin’ number, gotta break this losin’ streak
(Chorus)
Buttondown blues
Got me shaking
Look what a toll it’s takin,
Oh’ my head is achin,
Come on, baby come’ baby come to me
Is it any wonder I can survive
Livin’ this life of mine nine to five
Your lovin’ keeps me alive
With these Buttondown Blues
(Instrumental) over the verse and first half of chorus
I said is it’ is it’ any wonder I can survive
Livin this life of mine nine to five
Your lovin’ keeps me alive
With these Buttondown Blues
