Working Man

Well, I work on the railroad

With a sledge in one hand and a pick in the other

Well, I can do more work than my brother

Work don't hurt me

Well, I look over yonder and what I see

The ol' water boy a'comin' up to me

Sometimes he be running

And then again he be jumping

Oh, you oughta hear my sledgehammer pumpin'

Well, I wanna tell you and I'm-a tell you time and again

It was a terrible wind

It was my sledgehammer

I'm a man amongst men

Work for a little bitty pay

Sweat running off every way

Oh, I'm a working man
