Empty Pockets from 1st person perspective |
I'm the man with the empty pockets
With a back as strong as steel
I’ll be ready if work comes
But that doesn’t help with the way I feel
Boot leathers getting thinner
My patience is like my shoes
Makes me question who I am
As I'm made to play the fool
[Chorus]
I've got Empty pockets
I've got the blues
I've got empty pockets
And nothing to hold on to
I've been out of work for 2 years
Feels like 23
Unemployment figures don't matter
The bottom is all I see
I never claimed it was easy
Now I wonder will it be at all
Gone is my security
My backs up against the wall
[Chorus]
I wake up later each morning
And go to bed later each night
The world is gone with the sunset
And it won’t be back with the morning light
[Chorus] 2X
