It's a big job just gettin' by with nine kids and a wife
|
But I've been a workin' man dang near all of my life
|
And I'll keep on workin' long as these two hands're fit to use
|
I'll drink a little beer in a tavern and sing a little bit of these workin' man blues
|
I'll keep my nose on the grindstone work hard everyday
|
I might get a little tired on the weekends after I draw my pay
|
But I'll go back workin' come Monday mornin' I'm right back with the crew
|
I'll drink a little beer that evening and sing a little bit of these workin' man blues
|
Sometimes I think about leavin' do a little bummin' around
|
I wanna throw my bills out the window catch a train to another town
|
But I'll go back workin' I gotta buy my kids a brand new pair of shoes
|
I'll drink a little beer in a tavern and cry a little bit of these workin' man blues
|
(Well here comes that old workin' man yeah)
|
[ guitar ]
|
Well hey hey workin' man workin' man like me
|
I ain't never been on welfare and that's one place that I won't be
|
I'll be back workin' as long as my two hands're fit to use
|
I'll drink my beer in a tavern and sing a little bit of these workin' man blues
|
(Yeah this song's for the workin' man yeah oh bring it on home boy)
