[Verse 1 Jack White] Well, I wanna try and hold my head up high In this bustedup Pinto truck conversion Between the broken concrete and the cloudy sky Well, you have to make an effort with me Can you make it look like youre chauffeuring me? Theres enough gas to get us home now if we glide [Verse 2 Margo Price Jack White] When we took this job, I thought that you knew the deal I told the boss we had a MercedesBenz But all we got in our yard is a steering wheel No, I cant borrow this tuxedo much longer You might have to cut and sell your long hair I dont mind you wearing a wig, but I wont steal Yeah [Chorus Margo Price Jack White] Well, honey, we cant afford to look this cheap We need to make it look like were high class So well haul ourself on, we cant be beat Well, I cant help but wonder, this time next year Will we be drinking Dom Perignon or reheated beer? Well, honey, we cant afford to look this cheap [Verse 3 Jack White with Margo Price] We have to keep up appearances as long as we can Theres too much to lose, our social status And our ice machine, and our ceiling fan Well, if they find out we aint real songwriters We go Dutch on cigarette lighters Were gonna lose the paradise thats in our hands Yeah [Chorus] Honey, we cant afford to look this cheap We got an image to live up to In the best motel on Imposter Street While the Joneses are waltzing off to dinner Were gluing old lottery tickets together Trying to make us a winner Well, honey, we cant afford to look this cheap [Outro Margo Price] Jack White We can do a song from our first record here This is a song that, uh That my husband I wrote together This is called The Worlds Greatest Loser
