Well, I was headed for my mailbox I met my landlord on the way
He said, “The cost of living’s going up, Boy and so did rent for you today
I just shook my head in disbelief as I watched that mailman load
That little tin box plumb full of bills on a pole out by the road
Well, I was almost scared to look inside cause it seemed them bills
had come to rob
The change I’d saved since last payday when they laid me off from
My job
I just saw it all for what it was - just the End-time closing in
Then a smile formed on this Christian’s lips - I’ll soon see Him appear
(Chorus - twice)
Well, the cost of living’s going up and so am I
When Jesus calls for me, I’m gonna fly
And I’ll wave goodbye at the moon as I go by her
The cost of living’s going up and I’m going higher
Tag: The cost of living’s going up and I’m going higher
Said I’m going higher
