Be Grateful Lyrics - The Farm Inc. - The Farm Inc.

The other day I caught myself complaining 

How my boss has got me working overtime 

Then the stranger who was sitting there beside me 

Said, I spent all day in the unemployment line 

Are there open shifts, are they hiring on 

I'll work any hours even all night long 

If you could put a good word in for me 

Every time you think you've got it bad 

You can find someone who's got it worse 

All the things you take for granted now 

They started out as blessings first 

If you got someone who loves you 

And a steady job that puts food on the table 

If you're strong and able 

Man, be grateful 

We complain about how much it's gonna cost us 

To fill our 20 something thousand dollars cars 

And living in the land of milk and honey 

It's so easy to forget how lucky we are 

We can work hard and buy a patch of dirt 

And on Sunday morning go to church 

And pray for those who don't have it as good as you 

Every time you think you've got it bad 

You can find someone who's got it worse 

All the things you take for granted now 

They started out as blessings first 

If you got someone who loves you 

And a steady job that puts food on the table 

If you're strong and able 

Man, be grateful
