about

Here’s a little tongue-in-cheek dose of reality.

lyrics

They lied to you when they said you’d pay some dues
Cause they implied that one day you’d be through
What I’ve got to say might make you blue
But the dues ain’t never paid and that’s the truth
 
You’ll keep on a payin’ As long as you’ll be staying
I hate to break your happy heart in two
But tell me have I ever lied to you?
The dues ain’t never paid and that’s the truth
 
Instrumental
 
I know you’re thinking that you’ve got it made
But there’s another card yet to be played 
You could  be  in LA or in  Duluth
But the dues ain’t never paid and that’s the truth
 
One day you’ll be flying but pretty soon you’re dying
You’re no better than your last review
Now you’re swinging for the fences like Babe Ruth
But the dues ain’t never paid and that’s the truth
 
Instrumental
 
Go on and climb that ladder but one day it won’t matter
It’s just a thing that all of us go through
One day it’s PBR, and the next Vermouth
But the dues ain’t never paid and that’s the truth
It’s a lesson that I learned back in my youth
The dues ain’t never paid and that’s the truth
Ask anyone I know, we’re living proof
The dues ain’t never paid
Don’t mean to rain on your parade
But the dues ain’t never paid and that’s the truth
