Well I was born on the wrong side 'a' town
My momma said "Son, don't let it bring ya down"
You gotta do whatcha can with the stuff tha ya got

You gotta push! push! 'Till you get your shot

You work hard from 9-5

Tax man leaves ya just enuff to survive
So when you feel like you're under the gun
That's when it's time to start havin' some fun


(Chorus):
Come on, come on

You gotta live it up
Come on, come on
You gotta live it up


When the world starts bringin' ya down
And you're in so deep you think you'll never get out

You gotta step back, take a look at yourself
You ain't gonna find it in a wishing well


You play hard, you play to win
Sooner or later, you gotta give in
Cause you don't get nothin' for free

But here's a little lesson you can take from me

(Chorus)


You play hard, you play to win
Sooner or later, you gotta give in

Cause you don't get nothin' for free
But here's a little lesson you can take from me


(Chorus)
