Tell me what do you get

At the end of the day

Is it all worth the while

Can you put on a smile

Does it fill you with pride

All the feelings inside

Or do you just wanna hide

Can you still walk away

At the end of the day



At the end of the day

Are you lonely or sad

Do you think you've been had

Is your heart ever glad

Or are you afraid

Cause you don't have it made

That you don't make the grade

Or of what people say

At the end of the day



Instrumental solo



At the end of the day

Is your framework intact

When you clean up your act

Do they keep coming back

Do you say follow that

Pat yourself on the back

Do you get what you lack

Do they give you respect

Or is it after the fact

At the end of the day



Tell me what do you get

Is it heartachce and pain

Does it keep coming back

Everytime that it rains

When I see you again

Will it still be the same

Am I really to blame

'Cause I don't play the game

At the end of the day



At the end of the day

At the end of the day

At the end of the day

At the end of the day

Got to kneel down and pray

At the end of the day

Got to kneel down and pray

At the end of the day
