Listen!
I've got all these bill collectors callin' me
Saying, "We need a payment and we need it 'fore three"
I'm trying my best to stay on my feet
But it's getting kinda hard tryin' to make these ends meet
The cableman acts just like that money his
But if they cut it off, I'ma have to go back to the rabbidies
'Cause what I ain't got, you sure can't get
I'm tryin' my best 'cause I'm just makin' it
Check to check (bill collectors at my door)
Ooh, baby (and I'm about to lose control)
What I'm gon' do? (Ooh, check to check)
'Cause I'm just making it
Check to check (my phone's turned off now my main is due)
Ooh Lord, have mercy (and I don't know what I'm gonna do)
Goin' out of my mind (ooh, check to check)
'Cause I'm just making it
Now sometimes my pockets be empty
And I just don't know where I'm gonna turn
Lights, water and gas are necessities, yeah
But I'm bustin' my butt trying to get groceries
Soon as I get money, it leaves my hand
Tired of wrappin' up pennies and pickin' up cans
'Cause what I ain't got, you sure can't get
I'm tryin' my best 'cause I'm just makin' it
Check to check (bill collectors at my door)
Ooh, baby (and I'm about to lose control)
What I'm gon' do? (Ooh, check to check)
'Cause I'm just making it
Check to check (my phone's turned off, now my main is due)
Ooh Lord have mercy (and I don't know what I'm gonna do)
Going out of my mind (ooh, check to check)
'Cause I'm just making it
"Hello?"
"Um, Mister Cunningham?"
"Yeah?"
"This is Veronica from the phone company (mhm)
When do you know when you were gonna come pay us
'Cause you're real close to termination"
"Now look here, I've told y'all that I'm living check to check and I just ain't got it
But I wish one of y'all would come down here trying to cut my phone off
'Cause I'll come down and put my foot in your... hello? Hello?"
'Cause what I ain't got, you sure can't get
I'm tryin' my best 'cause I'm just makin' it
Check to check (bill collectors at my door)
I don't know (and I'm about to lose control)
What I'm gon' do? (Ooh, check to check)
'Cause I'm just making it
Check to check (my phone's turned off now my main is due)
They keep calling me (and I don't know what I'm gonna do)
Ooh (ooh, check to check)
'Cause I'm just making it
(Bill collectors at my door)
Ooh, baby (and I'm about to lose control)
What I'm gon' do? (Ooh, check to check)
'Cause I'm just making it
Check to check (my phone's turned off now my main is due)
Ooh, baby (and I don't know what I'm gonna do)
Going out of my mind (ooh, check to check)
'Cause I'm just making it
Check to check (bill collectors at my door)
I ain't got no money and my bills are due (and I'm about to lose control)
Yeah (ooh, check to check)
'Cause I'm just making it
Check to check (my phone's turned off, now my main is due)
Lend me whole five dollars (and I don't know what I'm gonna do)
I'll give it back to you (ooh, check to check)
'Cause I'm just making it
Check to check
