Roll Up My Sleeves

I got to roll up my sleeves 
And go to work
Even though at times I simply don’t want to
There is no choice
Says a voice
I got to do what I got to do 
For work pays bills and keeps you alive
I have rolled up my sleeves 
And got to work
I am staring a new life
On a strong note
Work keeps me alive
There is nothing else to be more precise
