Workin Man Blues lyrics
It s a big job just gettin by with nine kids and a wife
But I ve been a working man dang near all of my life
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 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 working 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 working man blues
[ piano + guitar ]
Well hey hey workin man workin man like me
I ain t never been on welfare that s one place I won t be
I ll be back workin as long as my two hands are fit to use
I ll drink my beer in a tavern and sing a little bit of these working man blues
