A working day to long when everything goes wrong
And a boss who don't know i'm alive
I once had a notion i'd get that promotion,
But now i barley survive
A wife to demanding with no understanding
Of why i stay dead on my feet

A dimly lit tavern a willing young woman
Are some of the reasons i cheat
The hair that i'm losing and a women who's choosing
To lay sound asleep by my side
The bills they are mounting thats when i start counting
On someone to help sooth my pride
A lady that knows me affection she shows me and a smile so easy and sweet
The dreams that i've buried the load that i've carried
Are some of the reasons i cheat
My children keep on growing me age keeps on showing
Like all of my old friends i meet
So i'm getting older my life's growing colder
Just some of the reasons i cheat
Yes i'm getting older my life's growing colder
Just some of the reasons i cheat
