Lyrics

Hey now, you better listen to me, every one of you
We got a lot, a lot of work to do
Forget about your women and that water can
Today you're working for the man
Well, pick up your feet, we got a deadline to meet
I'm gonna see you make it on time
Now don't relax, I want your elbows and backs
I wanna see every one from behind
I'm working for the man
You're working for the man
You gotta make him a hand
When you're working for the man
Well, I'm picking him up, I'm laying him down
I believe he's gonna work me into the ground
I pull to the left and heave to the right
I wanna kill him but it wouldn't be right
I'm working for the man
I'm working for the man
You gotta make him a hand
When you're working for the man
Well, the boss man's daughter sneaks me water
Every time her daddy's down the line
She says meet me tonight, love me right
And everything is gonna be fine
So I slave all day without much pay
I'm just abiding my time
'Cause the company and the daughter you see
They're both gonna be all mine
I'm gonna be the man
I'm gonna be the man
You gotta make him a hand
If you're gonna be the man
Yeah, I'm working for the man
I'm working for the man
Gotta make him a hand
When you're working for the man
