Addicted To A Dollar Eighty hours a week, that's what I call work and this black under my blue collar is his best pay dirt. They work me hard from dawn to dusk Doin' double time puttin' out sweat for a filthy buck.
F.I.C.A. and the state They make my paycheck look like a big mistake. Tax man takes his before I see a cent and what they don't get, I've already spent.
Chorus I'm addicted to a dollar , that ain't worth a dime. I pick up my paycheck and pass it on down the line.
The more money that I'm making, the less I can call mine. Well, I'm addicted to a dollar , that ain't worth a dime.
Got me more payments than I've got checks. Ten more to go on this car, it's a wreck. Landlord's at my door, it's a life of hard knocks. When all I really want is my piece of the rock.
