It's a big job gettin' by with nine kids and a wife
Yeah but I been a workin' man dang near all my life
and I'll keep on working long as my two hands are fit to use
I drink a little beer in the ev'nin,
and sing a little bit of them working man blues

Well I keep my nose on the grindstone, work hard every day
Get tight on the weekend, after I draw my pay but I go back workin
come Monday morning I'm right back, with the crew
I'll drink a little beer in the tavern,
Cry a little bit of them working man blues

Well hey hey, the working man, the working man like me
never been on welfare, and that's one place he will not be
he'd be working 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 working man blues

(???Sometimes I think about leaving, do a little b__min around
throw my bills out the window catch me a train to another town
But I go back working I gotta buy my kids a brand new pair of shoes
I drink my beer at a tavern,
and cry a little bit of these working man blues???)

Here come a workin' man

This song's for the workin' man
