  S1:
  She's all laid up in bed 

  With a broken heart 

  While I'm drinking Jack all alone 

  In my local bar 

  And we don't know ho-ow, how we got into this mad situation 

  Only doing things out of frustration 

  Tryna make it work 

  But, man, these times are hard

  S2:
  She needs me now 

  But I can't seem to find the time 

  I got a new job now 

  On the unemployment line 

  And we don't know ho-ow, how we got into this mess, is it God's test? 

  Someone help us 'cause we're doing our best 

  Tryna make it work 

  But, man, these times are hard but we're gonna start by

  R1:
  Drinking old cheap bottles of wine 

  Sit talking up all night 

  Saying things we haven't 

  For a while, a while, yeah 

  We're smiling but we're close to tears 

  Even after all these years 

  We just now got the feeling 

  That we're meeting for the first time

  S3:
  She's in line at the dole 

  With her head held high 

  While I just lost my job 

  But didn't lose my pride and we both know ho-ow 

  How we're going to make it work when it hurts 

  When you pick yourself up you get kicked to the dirt 

  Tryna make it work 

  But, man, these times are hard but we're gonna start by
