Drinkin' Over Mama Lyrics - Hank Williams Sr.

Well I am workin' real hard 

and not gettin' paid 

and I'm sick of this life 

and I gotta get a break 

I've been real high 

and I've been down low 

and I live in a shack 

on a country dirt road 

Well I'm workin real hard and not gettin' paid 

and I'm sick of this life and I gotta get a break 

and I just cant get by anymore 

I've been real high and I've been down low 

and I live in a shack on a country dirt road 

and my best friend is my backup forty-four 

Well workin' real hard ain't hard to do 

when you got you a lotta money comin' to you 

but I ain't got a dime so I'll just sit here 

even though I'm broke I've got a six-pack of beer 

Well I've paid my dues 

and I've paid my rent 

and they still try to take everything they can 

Well I thought I had a good thing going on 

but the sheriff broke my door and he took me on 

and he said "hey boy, you owe the government" 

Well workin' real hard ain't hard to do 

when you got you a lotta money comin' to you 

but I ain't got a dime so I'll just sit here 

even though I'm broke I've got a six-pack of beer 

Well I'm workin' real hard and not gettin' paid 

and I'm sick of this life and I gotta get a break 

and I just can't get by anymore 

I've been real high and I've been down low 

and I live in a shack on a country dirt road 

and my best friend is my backup forty-four 

Well workin' real hard ain't hard to do 

when you got you a lotta money comin' to you 

but I ain't got a dime so I'll just sit here 

even though I'm broke I've got a six-pack of beer
