Working Man's Blues (Album Version)

Working Man's Blues - Charlie McCoy

Lyrics by：M. Haggard

Composed by：M. Haggard

Pearl haggard is one of the great songwriters of our time

With the help of barefoot jerry

I wanna do you some blues that

He brought about the work in me

Well it's a big job just getting by

With nine kids and a wife

You know I've been a working man

Dang you're all my life and

I'll keep on workin'

Just as long as my two hands up into use

I drink my beer in a tavern

Sing a little bit of these words

Get named blues

I keep my note to my griding stone

And work hard everyday

I might get a little tired on the weekend

After I draw my paid and I got back workin'

Come monday morning I'm right back with the crew

I drink a little beer on the weekends

Sing a little bit of these words

Get named blues

Here comes that old working man

Sometimes I think about leavin'

And do a little bumming around

I wanna throw my bills out the window

And catch a train to another town

But I go back workin'

I gotta buy my kids a brand new pair of shoes

I drink a little beer in a tavern

And cry a little bit of these words

Get named blues

Well hey hey the working man

The working man like me

I ain't never been on wealth fare

And that's one place I won't be

'Cause I'll be working

Just as long as a used two hands up into use

I drink my beer in a tavern

Cry a little bit of these words

Get named blues

This here is a song about the working man
