The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Now I don't mind workin' hard

You can't burn me down

They ain't made a job

That I can't work my way around

Sometime I do it for the money

Sometime for the glamour

Sometime I use my head

Sometime I get a bigger hammer

I worked on the railroad

I worked in the fields

I'm a steeple jack and it's a fact

I drive anything on wheels

I can frame a house drive pilin'

Pour that wet concrete

Take a weldin' rig and build a bridge

And I can do it in my sleep

Chorus

I'm the jack of all trades

I love every lick I get

If I ain't got the job done son

I might not want to quit

I'm the jack of all trades

That makes me the boss

You gonna get your money's worth

No matter what it costs

I don't work assembly line

Doin' the same ol thing

Same ol shop the same ol clock

Playin' the same ol game

I don't want no desk job man

It don't suit my clothes

I don't need no engineer

Just to show me how it goes

Hmm hmm show me how it goes

Chorus

There ain't no need to do a job

It I can't do it right

I may not be gettin' rich

But I'm sleepin' good at night

Some call me a gypsy

Some call me a flake

But I'll kiss your ass

if I don't earn

Every dime I make

Chorus
