Work for the Working Man

I'm here trying to make a living

I ain't living just to die

Never getting back what I'm giving

Can someone somewhere help me justify

Why these strong hands are on the unemployed line

Now there's nothing left

But what's on my mind

Who's gonna work for the working man

Hurt for the working man

Get your hands in the dirt

Who's gonna work off the curse

Brother, I'll be damned

If I don't raise a hand

Whose gonna work work work work

For the working man

Empty pockets full of worry

Had to get two jobs and

It was hard enough just getting by

With the grace of god I'll get us through

I only know what I know how to do

I'm the only one who's got to look my family in the eye

Day after day, night after night

Who's gonna work for the working man

Hurt for the working man

Get your hands in the dirt

Who's gonna work off the curse

Brother, I'll be damned

If I don't raise a hand

Whose gonna work work work

For the working man

I lost my pension

They took my I'd

These were my friends

These were my dreams

These were my hopes

These are my streets

Can you hear me?

Who's gonna work for the working man

Hurt for the working man

Get your hands in the dirt

Who's gonna work off the curse

Brother, I'll be damned

If I don't raise a hand

Whose gonna work work work work

For the working man

These were my friends

These were my dreams

These were my hopes

These were my streets
