(Verse) The other day I called myself complaining Now my boss has got me working over time Then the stranger who was sitting there beside me Said ,I spent all day in the unemployment Are there open shifts, are they hiring on I'll work any hours even all night long If you could put a good word in for me
(Chorus) Everytime you think you got it bad You can find someone who's got it worse All the things you take for granted now They started out as blessings first If you got someone who loves you And a steady job that puts food on the table If you're strong and able Man , be grateful
(Verse) We complain about how much it's gonna cost us To feel our 20 something thousand dollars cars And living in the land of milk and honey It's so easy to forget how lucky we are We can work hard and buy a patch of dirt And on sunday morning we can go to church And pray for those who don't have it as good as you
(Chorus x2) Everytime you think you got it bad You can find someone who's got it worse All the things you take for granted now They started out as blessings first If you got someone who loves you And a steady job that puts food on the table If you're strong and able Man , be grateful Yeah I'm grateful Oh man, be graaaaaaateefuuuuuuuuuuuuuul
