Damon Johnson – Workin' Man Blues Lyrics – New Today Lyrics

Well it’s a big job just getting’ by
With nine kids and a wife
I’ve been a workin’ man
Danger all my life
I keep on workin’
As long as my two hands are fit to use
I drink my beer in a tavern
Sing a little bit of these workin’ man blues

I keep on the grind stone
Work hard everyday
I might get a little tired on the weekend
After I draw my pay
I go back workin’
Come Monday mornin’ I’m right back with the crew
I drink my beer in a tavern
Sing a little bit of these workin’ man blues

Sometimes I think about leavin’
Do a little f*ckin’ around

I wanna throw my fears out the window
Catch a train to another town
I go back workin’
Gotta buy my kids a brand new pair of shoes
I drink my beer in a tavern
Cry a little bit of these workin’ man blues

Well hey hey the workin’ man
Workin’ man like me
I ain’t never been on welfare
That’s one place I won’t be
I’ll be workin’
As long as my two hands are fit to use
I drink my beer in a tavern
Sing a little bit of these workin’ man blues

I drink my beer in a tavern
Cry a little bit of these workin’ man blues
