Put myself on the line
With a need to come out first
The chewed up, the beaten down
What’s it all worth?
The girl I love, she tells me
I’m the greatest guy on earth
She told that to the other five
What’s it all worth?

Is it worth the loss?
Is it worth the pain?
Is it worth the aggravation
To do it all again?

I got a job, paid my dues
The boss, he liked my work
I poured a lot of coffee
What’s it all worth?
I’ve struggled with my family
Since the day of my birth
I tried to be a real good boy
What’s it all worth?

Is it worth the anguish?
Is it worth the pain?
Is it worth the aggravation
To do it all again?

The holy and the sinners
They all gather up in church
Quietly they contemplate
What it’s all worth
In 80 years they’ll bury me
I’ll end up in the dirt
I hope by then I’ve figured out
What it’s all worth

I hope by then I’ve figured out
What it’s all worth
I hope by then I’ve figured out
What it’s all worth
