lyrics
The alimony's due, the truck is up on blocks
The kids need new shoes, the car is in the shop
The roof's leaking rain... collector called again
They say apparently electricity ain't free
Unemployment's up I'll take odd jobs if you got'em
I'm running out of luck getting close to rock bottom
And the light at the end of the tunnel is
Probably a train
I'm too far gone to ever come back again
Can't get no worse
So bad it hurts
Keep holding on
Can't get no worse
So bad it hurts
Can't get no worse
Bank is on the phone, the mortgage payment bounced
I've given all I got but they want another ounce
They garnisheed my pay, to pay my taxes due
They took all my savings and my hope with it too
And the light at the end of the tunnel is probably a train
Am I too far gone to ever come back again?
Can't get no worse...
The kids need new shoes, the car is in the shop
The roof's leaking rain... collector called again
They say apparently electricity ain't free
Unemployment's up I'll take odd jobs if you got'em
I'm running out of luck getting close to rock bottom
And the light at the end of the tunnel is
Probably a train
I'm too far gone to ever come back again
Can't get no worse
So bad it hurts
Keep holding on
Can't get no worse
So bad it hurts
Can't get no worse
Bank is on the phone, the mortgage payment bounced
I've given all I got but they want another ounce
They garnisheed my pay, to pay my taxes due
They took all my savings and my hope with it too
And the light at the end of the tunnel is probably a train
Am I too far gone to ever come back again?
Can't get no worse...
