I went to get the mail just to see what was there
These heartless debt collectors
Now they’re all in my hair
My unemployment’s runnin’ out
It’s down to a speck
I’m hangin’ by my nails on my vanishing check
Vanishing check, vanishing check
It’s all we got to get beyond this nerve-wrackin’ trek
Vanishing check, vanishing check
We’ll somehow make it through
I’ll get this chain off my neck
I called my local office and they gave me some sass
I walked to town five miles
I can’t pay for the gas
And even if I could
My Chevrolet is a wreck
They got me where they want me
with my vanishing check
Chorus.
I went back home at five o’clock
It’s all such a shame
The rich keep gettin’ richer
That’s just part of the game
But what about my family
Now it’s all hands on deck
That ink keeps gettin’ redder on my vanishing check
