Short Changed

My back is bent, my hands are torn
I've been workin' long and hard for nothin' in return
Day after day, week after week
I've thrown it all on the line for nothin' I could keep

I feel those kids grindin' down on me
Short changed, short changed, short changed

Steal from the blind man beggin' down in the street
Whether we know it's me or him, but one of us has to eat
Disillusion, mind confusion
Tried so hard to do the right thing, but it just ain't no solution

I feel those walls fallin' down on me
Short changed, short changed, short changed
I feel those walls fallin' down on me

Short changed, short changed, short changed, short changed
Short changed, short changed, short changed, short changed
I feel it all grindin' down on me

Short changed, short changed
I got nothin' left, baby, short changed
Short changed, short changed, short changed
I'm short, short changed
