Lyrics

WORKIN’ MAN (Written by Graham Rodgers © 2007)

NOW I’M THE KIND OF MAN WHO WORKS WITH HIS HANDS COME RAIN OR SUN
I NEVER MESS AROUND, I ALWAYS KNUCKLE DOWN UNTIL MY WORK IS DONE

(CHORUS)
I BUILD ‘EM HIGH, KNOCK ‘EM LOW
WHERE EVER THERE’S WORK I’LL GO
THAT’S ‘CAUSE I’M A WORKING MAN
‘TILL THE SUN IS SINKING LOW
THROUGH WIND AND RAIN AND SNOW
THAT’S ‘CAUSE I’M A WORKING MAN

NOW I CAN WORK UP HIGH ON A SCRAPER IN THE SKY ON GIRDERS MADE OF STEEL
OR I CAN WORK IN WOOD, MAKE A BAD ROOF GOOD AND GIVE IT A WATER TIGHT SEAL
OR I CAN WORK DOWN IN A HOLE IN THE GROUND AND FIX THAT BROKEN DRAIN
YES I’LL DO ANYTHING THAT THE BOSS MAN SAYS AS LONG AS I GET MY PAY

(CHORUS)

(BRIDGE)
I WORK HARD TO GET MY PAY
SOMETIMES I DON’T SEE MY BABY FOR DAYS
BUT WHEN I DO SHE LOVES ME ALL SHE CAN
‘CAUSE THAT WOMAN UNDERSTANDS
THAT I’M A WORKING MAN

I NEVER HAD THE KNOWLEDGE TO GET THROUGH COLLEGE, SO I USED MY HANDS
JUST LIKE MY DAD AND HIS DADDY BEFORE, IT’S ALL I UNDERSTAND
MY KIDS ARE GONNA LEARN ‘CAUSE THE MONEY I EARN IS GONNA PUT ‘EM BOTH THROUGH SCHOOL
THEY’RE NOT GONNA SPEND ALL THE HOURS GOD SENDS WORKING LIKE A MULE

(CHORUS X2)
