[00:00.00]Earn Enough For Us (Remastered 2001) - XTC
[00:08.90]I've been praying all the week through
[00:12.46]At home at work and on the bus
[00:15.82]
[00:16.58]I've been praying I can keep you
[00:20.86]And to earn enough for us
[00:24.24]
[00:24.88]I can take humiliation
[00:28.93]And hurtful comments from the boss
[00:32.05]
[00:32.78]I'm just praying by the weekend
[00:37.14]I can earn enough for us
[00:40.50]
[00:41.35]Found a house that won't repair itself
[00:44.59]With it's windows cracking
[00:46.86]And a roof held together with holes
[00:49.86]
[00:53.98]Just because we're at the bottom of the ladder
[00:56.91]We shouldn't be sadder
[00:59.06]Than others like us
[01:00.92]Who have goals for the betterment of life
[01:05.52]Glad that you want to be my wife but honest
[01:09.54]I've been praying all the week through
[01:13.65]At home at work and on the bus
[01:17.06]
[01:17.68]I've been praying I can keep you
[01:21.75]And to earn enough for us
[01:24.93]
[01:26.05]So you're saying that we're going to be three
[01:29.48]Now a father's what I'll be
[01:32.10]Don't get me wrong I'm so proud
[01:34.74]But the belt's already tight
[01:38.03]I'll get another job at night but honest
[01:42.23]I can take humiliation
[01:46.45]And hurtful comments from the boss
[01:50.23]I'm just praying by the weekend
[01:54.67]I can earn enough for us
[01:58.45]
[02:07.02]Just because we're at the bottom of the ladder
[02:10.56]We shouldn't be sadder
[02:12.46]Than others like us
[02:14.40]Who have goals for the betterment of life
[02:18.31]
[02:18.88]Glad that you want to be my wife but honest
[02:23.08]I can take humiliation
[02:27.21]And hurtful comments from the boss
[02:31.43]I'm just praying by the weekend
[02:35.33]I can earn enough for us
[02:38.93]
[02:39.48]I can earn enough for us
