zach schmidt - company man lyrics
[verse 1]
just say good night, it’ll be alright
it’s time to go to sleep
i gotta break my back in the early morn’
with my hands and shuffle my feet
so i can eat
so we could eat
[verse 2]
she said, ”work is what god made us for”
but i think she’s full of sh+t
’cause my skin, it fries in the summer skies
and the devil holds the whip
and i can’t quit
we can never quit
[chorus]
and every night when i get home now
with every muscle sore
a few pennies in my pocket
my boots layin’ by the door
and every night, i’m lonely as i could ever bе
i’m a company man, i can’t hold no company
[verse 3]
well, when i come homе, ’bout a half past five
i’m nothin’ but skin and bones
she’s sittin’ there in her rockin’ chair
she likes to be left alone
and i don’t know her anymore, no, no
well, i don’t know
[verse 4]
haven’t seen her smile for quite some time
her eyes have grown so dark
we used to dance on our front porch
now, she won’t dance at all
not that i can recall
and i can’t recall
[chorus]
every night when i get home now
with every muscle sore
a few pennies in my pocket
my boots layin’ by the door
and every night, i’m lonely as i could ever be
i’m a company man, i can’t hold no company
yeah!
[breakdown]
[verse 5]
was a sat+rday, she went away
she slithered through the pines
like a graveyard robber, takin’ everything
money can never buy
and i don’t mind
she was never mine
and i don’t mind
[outro]
every night when i get home now
with every muscle sore
a few pennies in my pocket
my boots layin’ by the door
and every night, i’m lonely as i could ever be
i’m a company man, i can’t hold no company
i’m a company man, i can’t hold no company
