Useful Verse 1 Can’t remember how long I’ve been workin’ I guess maybe because I was young But if I wanted my seat at the table There was a job that I had to get done Chorus And I’m loved as long as I’m useful When I’m not there ain’t no one around Like a truck left out in the pasture It was the best until it broke down Left to sit in the weeds and the weather Forgotten and rusting to the ground Verse 2 I kept my head down and Lord, how I’d hustle Like John Henry out there drivin’ rails I thought if I gave them everything that I’ve got They’d still love me whenever I fail Chorus And I’m loved as long as I’m useful When I’m not there ain’t no one around Like a truck left out in the pasture It was the best until it broke down Left to sit in the weeds and the weather Forgotten and rusting to the ground Bridge My face is looking worn like my father’s And his father’s that came before If this is all just a repeating cycle You can bet that it won’t anymore Final Chorus And I’m loved as long as I’m useful When I’m not there ain’t no one around Like a truck left out in the pasture It was the best until it broke down Left to sit in the weeds and the weather Forgotten and rusting to the ground Let me know ow what you all think please.
