Brian Jenkins - Gas Money

Have you got some gas money? I really need it bad
Need it just to get to work, to try to please my dad
He's been on my ass lately to bring in some more cash
So I'm working overtime just to spend it all on gas

I wake up at four, and I'm walking out my door
And I'm greeted by a world that I'm not sure I've ever seen before
A pandemic and a war while I'm trying to score
They're shooting kids in elementary school
Man, what the fuck for?
I'm sick of playing this guitar while the world falls apart
I need some gas money, honey and I won't be too long
Come on

Could you spare some gas money? I'm stranded on the road
Need to walk a thousand miles just to get back home
It's tough to tell where it comes from and where it goes
I act like I can't see but I know, I know
And it's a hard knock life when you can't think anymore
You're working shitty ass hours at some grocery store
Get four hours of sleep before you're back on the floor
And man this minimum wage just don't do it no more
I need some gas cash, put it in the bag
Go fill up my tank I need to make a quick escape
I'm getting out of here, and soon I'll be gone
I need some gas money, honey and I won't be too long
Come on
