Working Man Blues Lyrics

It's a big job just gettin' by with nine kids and
A wife But I've been a workin' man dang near all
Of my life I'll keep on workin' long as these two
Hands are fit to use I'll drink a little beer in a
Tavern I'll sing a little bit of these workin' man
Blues

I'll keep my nose to the grindstone work hard
Everyday I might get a little tired on the weekend
After I draw my pay I'll go back workin' come
Monday mornin' I'm right back with the crew I'll
Drink a little beer that evening I'll sing a
Little bit of these workin' 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 I go back
Workin' gotta buy my kids a brand new pair of
Shoes I'll drink a little beer in a tavern I'll
Cry a little bit of these workin' man blues

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 I'll sing a little bit of these workin' man
Blues Well I'll drink my beer in a tavern I'll
Sing a little bit of these workin' man blues
