It took me ten good years to break in this old hat
It has a black sweat ring and the bill is cracked
It's all frayed in the front and duct taped in the back
There's so much that this hat has been through
In the window of the Abercrombie store
There's a product line I'm sure you've seen before
Brand new baseball caps made to look already worn
What is this world coming to
Nobody wants to work
Nobody wants to work for it
If it don't come easy, it ain't worth the wait
Nobody wants to work
Nobody wants to work for it
Welcome to the new old-fashioned way
I love the music that I grew up on
When the business was all about the song
These days it's just one throw up against the wall
If you don't stick, that's it - you're through
Nobody wants to work
Nobody wants to work for it
If it don't come easy, it ain't worth the wait
Nobody wants to work
Nobody wants to work for it
Welcome to the new old-fashioned way
I see it all the time
In the cardboard sign
That says I won't work for food
But I'd be happy to take your dime
Or the billboard for
A quick and cheap divorce
We don't try to fix anything anymore
Nobody wants to work
Nobody wants to work for it
If it don't come easy, it ain't worth the wait
Nobody wants to work
Nobody wants to work for it
