Amy Hawthorne - It Seems Like You Cant Just Be Poor Anymore Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Gas is going up again
And the rents are all too
Just spent a couple hundred on the windshield
And need some brake work too

[Verse 2]
That’s this modern world that we’re living in
And that, I understand
But I’m still making 10 an hour
Which ain’t even that bad

[Chorus]
Oh it seems
Like you can’t just be
Poor anymore

[Verse 3]
Remember when things were free
Like museums and the zoo
Now you gotta pay just to drive on the highway
And swim in the swimming pool

[Verse 4]
Automobile and health insurance
We all need legally
But the only plans that I can afford
Don’t cover anything
[Chorus]
Oh it seems
Like you can’t just be
Poor anymore

[Verse 5]
It used to bе you didn’t need
A lot to enjoy life
Load up the family into thе car
Head out to see the sights

[Verse 6]
But second jobs and part-time gigs
Means no vacation days
Can’t get enough hours for benefits
Or to qualify for a raise

[Chorus]
Oh it seems
Like you can’t just be
Poor anymore

[Bridge]
But I’ve been working hard every day
And still the bills, they ain’t getting paid
I used to believe that I’d done something wrong
But I’m doing just what my daddy did
And he managed to buy a home
[Verse 7]
Well, I don’t need a brand new car
Just something to get around
And I don’t need the job of my dreams
In a tall building downtown

[Verse 8]
I’m just trying to cut myself a slice
Of that American pie
Raise some kids, have some fun on the weekends
And live a decent life

[Chorus]
Oh it seems
Like you can’t just be
Poor anymore

[Outro]
Oh it seems
Like you can’t just be
Poor anymore
