(Keith Wilson)
Verse 1
I get up in the morning go to work every day
I don’t count my blessings, I count my pay
Dead in the water punching the clock
Dead man walking in a dead end job
Chorus
All I really want’s a little peace of mind
I need to know it’s gonna be alright
In the long run
Verse 2
I’ve got some slick politician stabbing me in the back
Spare me the spin, stick to the facts
I’ve done my time, I’ve paid my dues
Just for the record, I played by the rules
Chorus
All I really want’s a little peace of mind
I need to know it’s gonna be alright
In the long run
Verse 3
They’ve cut down the trees, there’s no fish in the sea
There’s a hole in the sky no air left to breath
I turn on the TV, what do I see
More war and destruction, death and disease
Chorus
All I really want’s a little peace of mind
I need to know it’s gonna be alright
In the long run
