My namEe is Jackson, I was named Bmafter my fatherA
EFollowed in his footsteps, down here Dto this factoEry
EI ain't complainin', wouldn't Bmwaste my breath to Abother
EThis work ain't hard, it's only Dborin' as can Ebe
EMarried Rebecca back in Bmseventy-Aseven
EI still love her and I Dguess she loves me Etoo
EWe go to church on Sundays 'cause we Bmwant to go to Aheaven
EMe and my family, ain't that Dhow you're supposed to Edo
But I'm F#mtired, Lord I'm Etired
BmLife is wearin' me Asmooth down to the Ebone
With Bmno rest for the Aweary, ya just move Eon
F#mTired, Lord I'm Etired
I've only missed six days in nigh on twenty years o' work
The money went to taxes and these bills I've paid on time
The raise I got two months ago don't meet the cost o' living
Selling my body for these nickels and these dimes
The smell of Becky's coffee rolled me out of bed this morning
I showered and shaved and dressed and pulled my work boots on
Walked in the kitchen, she was starin' out the window
And the way she said good morning made me ask is something wrong
She said I'm tired, I woke up tired
Life is wearin' me smooth down to the bone
With no rest for the weary, ya just move on
And I guess you just keep goin' till your gone
Tired, Lord I'm tired
Tired, Lord I'm tired
