I wake up... as the sun goes down; And the lights come on all around this town.
But it's not for me... I'm livin' upside down.

The kids wave goodbye, The wife wishes me luck. As I climb into my old pick-up truck.
But it's not for me... livin' upside down.

Somethin' just ain't natural about livin' life this way.
While the rest of the folks are beddin' down, I've just begun my day!

Well I'm "turnin'to" on the graveyard shift; just can't afford to lose it.
But it's not for me... livin' upside down.

( Lead over verse)

Sometimes there's just certain things... a man has gotta do;
Sacrifices you have to make... To see your family through.
And I can't wait 'till I can quit livin' life this way.
But for now, I guess I'll just sucking it up 'cause I've got bills to pay.

When sunlight pours in 'Round my bed, I pull the sheets up over my head.
No, it's not for me... This livin' upside down.

Somethin' just ain't natural about livin' life this way.
While the rest of the folks are beddin' down, I've just begun my day!
And when you've given all you have to give... it keeps takin' so much more.
No it's not for me. . . this Livin' Upside Down.


I Just wanna sleep and stop livin' upside down.
But there's mouths to feed, So I'm livin' upside down.

Alarm clock rings And I hit the snooze; Lord, please help me To see it through...
