Well hey hey workin' man workin' man like me
Never been on welfare that's the place I'll never be
I'll keep on workin' as long as my two hands are fit to use
I'll drink a little beer in a tavern
Sing a little bit of them workin' man blues yeah
Well it's a big job just gettin' by with nine kids and a wife
I've been a workin' man dang near all my life
And I'll keep on workin' as long as my two hands are fit to use (fit to use)
I'll drink a little beer in a tavern
Sing a little bit of them workin' man blues
(Now play me a little workin' man that guitar son pick it)
[ guitar ]
I'll keep my nose in the grindstone I'll work hard everyday
Get a little tired on the weekend after I draw my pay
But I'm right back workin' come Monday morning
I'm right back with that crew
(Right back with that crew)
I'll drink a little beer in a tavern
Sing a little bit of them workin' man blues yeah
Sometimes I think about leaving do a little bummin' around
Throw my bills out the window catch a train to another town
But I go back workin' I gotta buy my kids a brand new pair of shoes
I'll drink a little beer in a tavern
Sing a little bit of them workin' man blues yeah
