Story Behind The Song

I wrote the song when I was out of work and looking for a job

Song Description

Wanting my life to be better

Lyrics

Don't close the door on me
I want to live you see
Don't look down on me that way
I've every right to have my say

My mind keeps on rollin'
Streets I'm always strollin'
Dead ends each and every one
Still I feel I've got to run

I wanna be treated right like all working folk do
Then maybe I'll sleep at night and never feel so blue
I've tried to earn my pay nobody works quite so hard
Like a gambler falling prey I never turn the right card

Years go before me
I wonder my destiny
Will tomorrow ever show
Where the hell now do I go

Sleep brings dreams of good times
If only nursery rhymes
Thankful am I for the night
My future don't seem so very bright

I wanna be treated right like all working folk do
Then maybe I'll sleep at night and never feel so blue
I've tried to earn my pay nobody works quite so hard
Like a gambler falling prey I never turn the right card
