Songtexte Double Shift Tuesday - Slaid Cleaves

It's double shift Tuesday on minimum wage
(How'd you end up here?)
I'm treadmill running on a wheel in a cage
(How'd you end up here?)

Headline says the economy's boomin'
(How'd you end up here?)
You work all night till you stop feelin' human
(How'd you end up here?)

I'm rolling up nickels and dimes
For a meal and a bottle of beer
I know my momma's lookin' down on me, sayin'
How'd you end up here?

People pass me on the street, don't even see me
(How'd you end up here?)
I blend right in with the trash and grafitti
(How'd you end up here?)

I made some mistakes, yeah, that's on me
(How'd you end up here?)
You live and learn that nothing's ever free
(How'd you end up here?)

I once had a dream so bright
But dreams tend to disappear
I know my momma's lookin' down on me, sayin'
How'd you end up here

So tired of singing the same old song
(How'd you end up here?)
I know this isn't where I belong
(How'd you end up here?)

Don't wanna be a pawn in a rich man's game
(How'd you end up here?)
Someday everybody gonna know my name
(How'd you end up here?)

Someday everybody gonna know my name
Someday everybody gonna know my name
