Working Man

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Gary U.S. Bonds] Well he goes downtown, 7:35 He stands on-line just to stay alive He rides the train, it don't ride so well From this dirty town, he hears the bell He grabs a smoke and he's on his way A workin' man on workin' day [Pre-Chorus: Gary U.S. Bonds & The American Men] A workin' man on workin' day He works so hard! But he always stays Just a workin' man [Chorus: Gary U.S. Bonds & The American Men] Workin', workin'! Workin', workin'! He's just— He's just a workin' man! He's just a workin' man! [Verse 2: Gary U.S. Bonds] And on his office desk, there's a whole lotta white paper Three long months of his life trying to locate a Missing form on the stickin' fax 11:35, can I call you back? So he grabs a Coke, and does a jay A workin' man on a workin' day [Pre-Chorus: Gary U.S. Bonds & The American Men] A workin' man on a workin' day He works so hard! But he always stays Just a workin' man [Chorus: Gary U.S. Bonds & The American Men] Workin', workin'! I know you're asleep, he's workin' Workin', workin'! Up on his feet 'til the break of day Hе's just a workin' man! Workin', workin'! And out on the street, he's workin' Workin', workin'! Baby, he's workin' his lifе away! He's just a workin' man! (He's just a workin' man!) He's just a workin' man! (Woah, no!) [Trumpet Solo] [Verse 3: Gary U.S. Bonds] Well in the afternoon, you can hear them shout "You've got to pick it up! You've got to [?] it out 'Cause there's a job to do, there's a sale to make There's a steady rise in the interest rate" So he grabs a smoke, and he downs a shot 'Cause it's an hour a ride to the parkin' lot [Pre-Chorus: Gary U.S. Bonds & The American Men] A workin' man on a workin' day He works so hard! And he always stays Just a workin' man [Chorus: Gary U.S. Bonds & The American Men] (Alright!) Workin', workin'! Workin', workin'! (He's just—) He's just a workin' man! [Refrain: Gary U.S. Bonds & The American Men] Workin', workin'! Workin', workin'! (He's just—) He's just a workin' man! (A workin' man!) He's just a workin' man! (Alright!) He's just a workin' man! (A workin' man!) He's just a workin' man! (Alright!) Workin', workin'! Workin', workin'! (He's just—) He's just a workin' man! (A workin' man!) He's just a workin' man! (Oh, woah!) Workin', workin'! Workin', workin'! (He's just—) He's just a workin' man! Workin', workin'! Workin', workin'! (Oh, he's just—) He's just a workin' man! (A workin' man!) He's just a workin' man! (Come on!) Workin', workin'!
