(Otis Rush)
I lay awake at night can't sleep just so troubled
It's hard to keep a job, laid off and havin' double trouble
Hey, they say you can make it if you try
Yes, in this generation of millionaires, it's hard for me to keep decent clothes to wear
You laughed at me walkin' baby, when I had no place to go
Bad luck and trouble have taken me, I have got no money to show
Hey, hey, to make it you've got to try, baby, that's no lie
Yes, in this generation of millionaires, it's hard for me to keep decent clothes to wear
I lay awake at night can't sleep just so troubled
It's hard to keep a job, laid off and havin' double trouble
Hey, they say you can make it if you try
Yes, in this generation of millionaires, it's hard for me to keep decent clothes to wear
You laughed at me walkin' baby, when I had no place to go
Bad luck and trouble have taken me, I have got no money to show
Hey, hey, to make it you've got to try, baby, that's no lie
Yes, in this generation of millionaires, it's hard for me to keep decent clothes to wear
