Today's again the day for pay
But I'll not go away to play
Many gather round to say
That I have debts I must defray
Concerns of money to allay
And if I creditors betray
I'll soon lose a place to lay
My head and my family may
Suffer worse things yet
So I return to working pen
And sending out my funds again
To try to my family defend
Against the debts that have no end
While we struggle to pretend
That this is the unflagging trend
Toward which we all are going to bend
And while it is where I still tend
My path's not fully set
