Mama, Do I Gotta Work Today?

from Commie Cowboy by Pink Williams

lyrics

Mama, do I gotta work today?
I’m only 10 years old, I don’t have bills to pay
I’m too young to worry 'bout workin’
I just wanna run and play
Mama, do I gotta work today?

Teacher taught us all our ABC’s
But I don’t know about economies
Daddy says we need money
And money doesn’t grow on trees
But I want to stay little a little bit longer please

I should still be watching Sesame Street
But I work at McDonald’s grilling meat
I got boo-boos on my fingers
from the burning oil and heat
And blisters on the bottom of my feet

Mama, do I gotta work today?
I’m only 10 years old, I don’t have bills to pay
I’m too young to worry 'bout workin’
I just wanna run and play
Mama, do I gotta work today?

Mama, I’m so tired when work is done
Can I go back to learning 1+1?
I know I’m supposed to pay my way
just like everyone
But when can I go back to having fun?

Mama, do I gotta work today?
I’m only 10 years old, I don’t have bills to pay
I’m too young to worry 'bout workin’
I just wanna run and play
Mama, do I gotta work today?
Mama, do I gotta work today?
