[Verse 1]
Well, hey, hey, workin' man, workin' man like me
Never been on welfare, it's a place I'll never be
I'll keep on workin'
As long as my two hands are fit to use
I drink a little beer in a tavern
Sing a little bit of them workin' man blues, yeah
[Verse 2]
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 drink a little beer in a tavern
Sing a little bit of them workin' man blues
Now, play me a little workin' man on that guitar, son
Pick it
[Guitar Solo]
Play it on, yeah
[Verse 3]
I keep my nose to the grindstone, I work hard every day
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 drink a little beer in a tavern
Sing a little bit of them workin' man blues, yeah
[Verse 4]
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 drink a little beer in a tavern
Sing a little bit of them workin' man blues, yeah
