Workin' Man (Nowhere to Go) |
| Sittin' alone in the dark, |
| Wastin' my time in a park |
| 'cause I’ve got nowhere to go. |
| Had me a job til the market fell out, |
| Tried hard to borrow but there was no help |
| Now I’ve got nowhere to go. |
| I need a job for these two hands |
| I’m a workin' man |
| With nowhere to go One last look at my land |
| Auctioneer with his gavel in hand |
| and he says «it's got to go.» |
| Worked this peice all my life |
| it broke my heart and it took my wife |
| Now I’ve got nothing to show |
| I need a job for these two hands |
| I’m a workin' man |
| with nowhere to go Wandered aimless in the city |
| with my dirt workin' boots and my old straw hat in hand |
| singing a song by Woody Guthrie |
| This land is your land; |
| it ain’t my land |
| I’m a workin' man, with nowhere to go |
| I was born to the sunrise |
| Breaking back all day |
| Now I’ve got something to say |
| I am broke but not broken |
| and I am not alone |
| cause there’s a lot of folks |
| with nowhere to go Are they ever gonna understand? |
| You can’t leave a workin' man |
| with nowhere to go. |
| Are they ever gonna understand? |
| You can’t leave a workin' man |
| with nowhere to go |
