“Work to do and bills to pay”
“Work to do and bills to pay”
There have been several prompts behind the formation of MAWAMFC. One has been a song by Bruce Springsteen (yes, really).
We played king of the mountain out on the end
The world come chargin’ up the hill, and we were women and men
Now there’s so much that time, time and memory fade away
We got our own roads to ride and chances we gotta take
We stood side by side each one fightin’ for the other
We said until we died we’d always be blood brothers
Now the hardness of this world slowly grinds your dreams away
Makin’ a fool’s joke out of the promises we make
And what once seemed black and white turns to so many shades of gray
We lose ourselves in work to do work to do and bills to pay
And it’s a ride ride ride and there ain’t much cover
With no-one runnin’ by your side my blood brother
Perhaps, as some of Jesus’ parables, I shall leave you to uncover the meaning
