use!

Lyrics

MAKIN' A LIVIN'

YOU'VE MADE ME FEEL AS BAD AS I CAN FEEL
THESE TEARS ROLLIN' DOWN MY CHEEKS
WELL, ANYONE CAN SEE THEY'RE REAL
WELL, I WROTE ABOUT THE WAY
YOU MADE MY LIFE COME ALL UNDONE
THEN I SENT THEM SONGS TO SONY
AND NOW THEY'RE GOIN' NUMBER ONE!

(WHOA, WHOA, I'M MAKIN' A LIVIN'
FROM THE TEARS YOU MADE ME CRY
EVERYTIME THAT YOU HURT ME
WELL, EVERYTIME YOU'D CHEAT AND LIE
EVERYTIME THAT YOU LEFT ME
NIGH AFTER NIGHT
YOU WERE MY INSPIRATION
FOR ALL THEM SONGS I WRITE!
AND NOW I'M SINGING ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK
AND BABY, IT'S YOU I NEED TO THANK
AND YOU'VE LEFT ME ENOUGH BAD MEMORIES...
THEY'RE GONNA LAST ME 'TIL I DIE
AND NOW I'M MAKIN' A LIVIN'
MAKIN' A LIVIN'......
FROM THE TEARS YOU MADE ME CRY!

WELL, BABY, I DON'T LOVE YOU ANYMORE
SOMETIMES, IT'S HARD TO REMEMBER
HOW BAD I HURT BEFORE
THEN I JUST DIG OUT YOUR OLD PICTURE
AND MUSTER UP SOME 'BLUE'
THEN I GRAB MY PEN AND PAPER
AND WRITE ANOTHER HIT OR TWO!

(REPEAT CHORUS)
