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 my two hands are fit to use
I'll drink my beer in a tavern and sing a little bit of these workin' man blues
I'll keep my nose to the grindstone work hard everyday
Might get a little tired on weekends after I draw my pay
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 leaving do a little bummin' around
Wanna throw my bills out the window catch a train to another town
I go back workin' 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
Work on it Pete Wade
[ guitar ]
Well hey hey the workin' man workin' man like me
I ain't never been on welfare that's one place I won't be
But I'll be a workin' long as my two hands are fit to use
I'll drink my beer in a tavern and sing a little bit of these workin' man blues
This song's for the workin' man
