Lyrics
The Workinman's Hymn
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.
Some people hungry for a green-backed bill
Some folks hunger for the top of the hill
Some people just trying to get a decent meal
But I know that we can can turn it around
Some people sleeping in a fine feather bed
Some folks are dreaming of the old homestead
Some just need a place to lay their head
But I know that we can can turn it around
I know that we can turn it around
If there's one thing that I found
There's a voice in the din singing a working man's hymn
I know that we can turn it around
River bottom up to home on high
End of the line or the endless sky
Jet setting or just getting by
I know that we can turn it around
I know that we can turn it around
If there's one thing that I found
There's a voice in the din singing a working man's hymn
I know that we can turn it around
From the Ninth Ward up to Pettycoat lane
One man's joy has been another man's pain
But the Sun keeps shining through the driving rain
And I know that we can turn it around
I know that we can turn it around
If there's one thing that I found
There's a voice in the din singing a working man's hymn
I know that we can turn it around
