Bobby drives a pick-up for a corner store,
Four bucks an hour and he's hoping for more.
He's 28 years old and he still lives at home,
Bobby's got ideas, but he ain't alone.
There's a million Bobbies across this land,
Everybody's got real big plans.
He's got something to live for, Something so real.
He's got something to live for, That one big deal.
Bobby's got an uncle who talks a mean streak,
Makes more in an hour than Bobby in a week.
He tells the boy, don't waste your time,
Be useless like your father, nickel and dime.
There's a million Bobbies across this land,
Everybody's got real big plans.
He's got something to live for, Something so real.
He's got something to live for, That one big deal.
Bobby could have done-it if he'd only tried,
Could have been a contender, could have been a great guy.
But he didn't rob a bank or write a hit song,
Got a raise and married Yvonne.
He's got something to live for, Something so real.
He's got something to live for, That one big deal.
He's got something to live for, One sweet deal
He's got something to live for, That one sweet deal
He's got something to live for, That one big deal.
He's got something to live for...
