Working Class Slaves

I walk these many streets I walk this path of stone I hunger for a life That I can call my own I'm a slave to my job I'm a slave to this town I'm a slave to the system That strives to keep me down I owe money for my house I owe money for my car I owe money to the bank I'm left with pennies in my jar If your life's the same as mine I know just how you feel We have one thing in common We're just a cog in this wheel
