Times Gettin' Tougher Than Tough

Money's getting cheaper, prices getting steeper
Found myself a woman, but I just couldn't keep her
Times getting tougher than tough
Things getting rougher than rough
I make a lot of money
I just keep spending the stuff

Pork chops on the market, ask the butcher for a pound
I couldn't buy a pork chop when I laid my money down
Times getting tougher than tough
Things getting rougher than rough
I make a lot of money
I just keep spending the stuff

Politicians are telling folks to cut out on their meat
Why don't they cut the price and let the people eat?
Times getting tougher than tough
Things getting rougher than rough
I make a lot of money
I just keep spending the stuff

I can't afford to live, I guess I'll have to try
The undertaker's got a union and it costs too much to die
Times getting tougher than tough
Things getting rougher than rough
I make a lot of money
I just keep spending the stuff
