Bruce Hornsby - Another day

Woke up this morning looking at the screen There's a couple of men talking I'm not sure what they mean There's a conversation many men running wild We learn about the world while they're fighting in the aisles Here we go What do you say, what do you know You've got your life and you watch it away It's just another day in this old town So get down Home Shopping Channel's got us by the eyes Scrambling to the phones ordering porcelain flies Talk to the women talk to the wives Everybody's buying important things for their lives Here we go What do you say, what do you know You've got your life and you watch it away It's just another day in this old town So get down He's a high performance engine with Jesus as the fuel Old father's handing out forty acres and a mule Preaching the word of prosperity Make a little more money they might just put you on t.v. Here we go What do you say, what do you know You've got your life and you watch it away Ain't no big thing it's just another day Ain't no big thing so let it ring Let it ring George Turn off the lights honey then turn off the set Life around here don't make a lot of damn sense As I closed my eyes I saw in my mind Somebody selling me a nickle for a dime Here we go What do you say, what do you know You've got your life and you watch it away It's just another day in this old town So get down, ain't no big thing so let it ring In this old town so get down It's another day so go ahead Go ahead Everybody go
