1040 Blues

Worried, you betcha

Discouraged, I don't know

Every time I see a 1040

Out of my pocket it goes

Ow, I hate taxes

I work hard for my money

Every April you take it all away

Don't you know I work hard for my money

Every day, people

You take it all away from me

Ow, ow, I hate taxes

Taxes gonna break my back, I swear

Don't you know I pay a lot more than my share?

I hate taxes

Can't have any fun anymore

Gotta make plans for everything now

Gotta plan for every thing I do, people

Can't go out and have a real good time

Now I've gotta worry about everything

That my little money can buy

Oh, ow, I hate taxes

Taxes gonna break my back, I swear

Don't you know I paid a lot more than my share?

I hate taxes

You know I'm thinkin' about movin' somewhere else

But I can't because I love America too much

Especially California, yeah

I guess I'm gonna have to pay these taxes

If I'm gonna live here, oh
