Workin Man |
I woke up this mornin', kissed my wife goodbye |
I pray to god that i’ll make it home safe tonight |
It’s a dangerous job but i take that risk |
I’ll trade my blood and sweat just to feed my kids |
I’ve been working for the man since a tender age |
Now a rich politician wants to lower my wage |
Pour me a drink so i can understand |
These are the struggles of a working man |
I work outside in the pouring rain |
When it’s cold as ice when i’m full of pain |
It don’t matter what i feel inside |
As long as the job i’m working gets done on time |
The boss man says works getting slow |
Pack up your tools boys and head on home |
I pour another drink and try to understand |
These are the struggles of a working man |
You see i work construction |
I build things |
Do you understand how important that is to the world? |
I don’t know if ya’ll realize what kind of pressure that puts on a man like me |
I love my wife and i raise my son, best i can, better then some |
I just found out the other day i got another little one that’ts on the way |
I took a new job down at the factory, ya it don’t pay much but at least we can |
eat |
I roll up a smoke and think a new plan? |
(can't really hear that) |
These are the struggles of a working man |
When down to the river just the other day |
Got down on my knees and began to pray |
I said lord please won’t you understand |
The struggles of a working man |
