I got two kids, two jobs
And a wife whose love I know is steady and strong
And this is my life's work

I'm no doctor, that's for sure
Or a brilliant scientist on the verge of a cure
And Michelangelo's nothing to fear
But my vision's just as clear

I won't be bronzed in the hall of fame
Or known for the style that changed the course of the game
I ain't no Hollywood star riding off with the girl
But I'm gonna leave my mark on this world

Cause I got two kids, two jobs
And wife whose love I know is steady and strong
And we're building our future one day at a time
With a few extra nickels and dimes
Though it might not seem like much next to the greats of this earth
But this is my life's work

Now I won't change the world with something I invent
And I got no designs on being president
My words won't be confused with William Shakespeare
But I mean what I say and I know why I'm here

Cause I got two kids, two jobs
And a wife whose love I know is steady and strong
And we're building our future one day at time
With a few extra nickels and dimes
It might not seem like much next the greats of this earth
This is my life's work
Yeah, this is my life

As time goes by I realize how much life means to me
No fortune nor fame, but just the same
I got everything I need

Yeah, I got two kids, two jobs
And a wife whose love I know is steady and strong
And we're building our future one day at a time
With a few extra nickels and dimes
It might not seem like much next to the greats of this earth
But this is my life, I'm proud of my life
Yeah, this is my life's work
