Workin' Man Blues - Merle Haggard And The Strangers

作曲：Merle Haggard

It's a big job gettin' by with nine kids and a wife

but I've been a workin' man dang near all my life

I'll keep on working long as my two hands are fit to use

I drink my beer at a tavern and

sing a little bit of these working man blues

I keep my nose on the grindstone work hard every day

Get tired on the weekend after I draw my pay

But I go back workin'

come on Monday mornin'

I'm right back with the crew

I drink a little beer that evening

sing a little bit of these working man blues

Sometimes

I think about leavin' do a little bummin' around

i want Throw my bills out the window

catch me a train to another town i go back to working

I got to buy my kids a brand new pair of shoes

I drink my beer at a tavern and

cry a little bit of these workin' man blues

Here comin' workin' man

Well hey hey the working man the working man like me

I Never been on welfare and that's one place he will not be

He'd be workin' just as long as his two hands are fit to use

Might drink a little beer at a tavern

sing a little bit of them workin' man blues

This song for the working man
