Working Man's Wage |
I’ve seen mornings when a thousand bales of hay |
Looked like a mountain to a boy my age |
And I’ve seen my daddy in that hot southern sun |
Move those mountains one by one |
And I’ve seen that same man come home from the mill |
Pull forty hours for a hundred-dollar bill |
I’ve watched him struggle and I’ve watched him age |
Raising a family on a working man’s wage |
I grew up on a working man’s wage |
Blood, sweat and tears on every dollar he made |
For the little he earned there was so much he gave |
And I hope I am worthy of a working man’s wage |
I pick this guitar six nights a week |
Daddy can’t believe they’re paying me It would be so easy to let it go to my head |
But there’s just one thing that I can’t forget |
I grew up on a working man’s wage |
Blood, sweat and tears on every dollar he made |
For the little he earned there was so much he gave |
And I hope I am worthy, I hope I am worthy |
Of a working man’s wage |
I’ve seen mornings when a thousand bales of hay |
Looked like a mountain to a boy my age |
