I didn´t want it, it was plain to see
When we talked out plans makin´ no money
I can no longer go to say it´s fine
And I don´t want nothin´ I want a life

Tryin´ like a jewel just to shine it on
Momma´s gonna love it no matter what
Ridin´ on a silver shadow to my grave

And it seems like we´re just turnin´
Turnin´ just to make it work
And it seems like we´re just turnin´
Turnin´ just to make it work

Well, everybody says the seasons change
And you get hit waitin´ for the winter train
Lyin´ in your bed, and it begins to rain
Yeah, it feels that way, but it´s not the same

I know that you´re here and that you want to stay
Wishin´ all the time that you could run away
Babe, we´re only kids, what´s one more on the way

Prayin´ every night and day

And it seems like we´re just turnin´
Turnin´ just to make it work
And it seems like we´re just turnin´
Turnin´ just to make it work
All the while, we´re always learnin´
Learnin´ how to make it work
But it seems like we´re just turnin´
Turnin´ ´til we make it work

And when you live a little then you learn to know
It don´t always go the way it goes
So I´ll take another job you´ll work nights at the bar
We can make it work, I know, I know, I know

Turnin´ just to make it work

Turnin´ just to make it work
And it seems like we´re just turnin´
Turnin´ just to make it work
And it seems like we´re just turnin´
Turnin´ just to make it work
