John Anderson - Lower on the hog

^GI've been workin' at a sawmill earnin' every dime I make ^GLookin' at my check stub ^Dcussin' what the tax man ^Gtakes My ^Gbaby's dependin' on me oh Lord to bring the bacon home But ^Git's just salt pork we're ^Deating lower on the ^Ghog

But if I ^Cdie in the mornin' they can't say I didn't pay my way With ^Ghonest sweat and elbow grease and doin' what the foremen say But ^Cafter we buy groceries, pay the rent and the telephone I'm broke, it's ^Dgone, what's goin' on There's a ^Emlot less scrap to ^Fthrow out to the ^Gdog I'm ^Emmakin' more now and ^Featin' lower on the ^Ghog
