Lyrics

It's a big job just gettin' by with nine kids and a wife Yeah, but I've been a workin' man dang near all my life I'm gonna keep working long as my two hands are fit to use I drink my beer at tavern and Sing a little bit of these working man blues But I keep my nose on the grindstone, I work hard every day Get tired on the weekend, after I draw my pay but I'll go back workin' Come Monday morning I'm right back with the crew I drink a little beer that evening Sing a little bit of these working man blues 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 working, I gotta buy my kids a brand-new pair of shoes I drink my beer at a tavern and Cry a little bit of these working man blues Here come a working man Well, hey, hey, the working man, the working man like me Never been on welfare, and that's one place I would not be He'll be working just long as his two hands are fit to use Might drink a little beer at a tavern Sing a little bit of them working man blues This song, for the working man
