We're Gonna Make It

The roof and faucet leaks

Water drips a beat of poverty

Roaches travel the walls

Mice avoid the traps

Heat and hot water is unpredictable

Just like the weather

The forecast of our happy home

No new furniture but it's still ours

Better than a park bench or a sidewalk

Playing house in the real world

Go out to work six days a week

Just getting by to come home to you

We're gonna make it

Together we will
