作曲：Merle Haggard

It's a big job just gettin'

By with nine kids and a wife

But I been a workin' man dang near all my life

People are working

Long as my two hands

Are fit to use

I'll drink my beer in a tavern

Sing a little bit of these working man blues

I keep my nose on the grindstone I work hard every day

Might get a little tired

On the weekend after I draw my pay

But I'll go back workin

Come monday morning I'm right back with the crew

I'll drink a little beer that evening

Sing a little bit of these working man blues

Sometimes I think about leaving

Do a little bummin around

I wanna throw my bills out the window

Catch a train to another town

But I go back working

I gotta buy my kids a brand new pair of shoes

Yeah drink a little beer in a tavern

Cry a little bit of these working man blues

Here comes the working man

Hey hey the working man the working man like me

I ain't never been on welfare that's one place I won't be

I'll be working

Long as my two hands

Are fit to use

I drink my beer in a tavern

Sing a little bit of these working man blues

It's song for the working man
