1st verse
Somebody said what are you doin' down there
Trying to make me a living
All I want is to get my fair share
I'm pleading but nobody's giving
Maybe I'm wrong, and I don't see things clear
But I know how I feel after all the these years
I'll keep fighting the pain and the heartache and tears
Chorus
Then I'll push it, going to work it
Keep right on till I hit it
I'm going to push it, going to work it
Keep right on till I hit it
Push it, going to work it
Keep right on till I hit it
I'm going to push it, going to work it
Keep right on till I hit it
2nd verse
Looking up cause I've got time to spare
Today the sun ain't shining
I'm still searching everywhere
For my cloud with the silver lining
People say that enough is enough
Turn my back on this thing put it down to bad luck
But the day I do that, then my life will be up
Chorus
So I'll push it, going to work it
Keep right on till I hit it
I'm going to push it, going to work it
Keep right on till I hit it
Push it, going to work it
Keep right on till I hit it
I'm going to push it, going to work it
Keep right on till I hit it
