Work Song (Single Version)

Lyrics

What's the average guy gonna do? What's the average guy gonna do? He just has a labor job He can't find a better job Work all day in the steel mill Be a cop or drive a truck Get a four-year college degree End up in the factory Be the man who works all day You get your pay Spend it on a Friday night Life's not great but it's not bad You don't think much about being sad You just do what you have to do Work all day you got a job to do Muscles work Your body is as hard as rock Hit him like a rock tonight Drive the car through morning traffic Punch the clock and start the day The loud machines ring in your ear The air is grey your body's aching When does it stop so you can relax? Get up еvery morning work for your money Therе's a bar right down the street After the work the guys meet They're dirty and hot they want a beer They watch the baseball game here Chicago Cubs will play today They're gonna shout "Hey! Hey!" Blacks and whites and Mexicans Ethnic men from Poland Call your friends You'll have some fun when you get drunk Drinking with the guys tonight Drive the car through morning traffic Punch the clock and start the day The loud machines ring in your ear The air is grey your body's aching When does it stop so you can relax? Get up in the morning work for your money No one help you out You're stuck like millions working everyday Just work work work work Work work work work Work work work work work It won't stop All the men work they're stuck in the middle Nowhere near richness But they aren't starving Taxes, food, car payments, electric bills Oh but you're not starving Now you're an old man Do you get to retire or do you die soon from a heart attack? You worked your whole life and broke your back Every day just seems the same you did your work Work work work work Work work work work
