Lyrics Workin' Man Blues - Albert Cummings
It′s
a
big
job
just
gettin'
by
with
nine
kids
and
a
wife
I
been
a
workin′
man
dang
near
all
my
life
I'll
be
working
long
as
my
two
hands
are
fit
to
use
I'll
drink
my
beer
in
a
tavern,
Sing
a
little
bit
of
these
working
man
blues
I
keep
my
nose
on
the
grindstone,
I
work
hard
every
day
Might
get
a
little
tired
on
the
weekend,
after
I
draw
my
pay
But
I′ll
go
back
workin,
come
Monday
morning
I′m
right
back
with
the
crew
I'll
drink
a
little
beer
that
evening,
Sing
a
little
bit
of
these
working
man
blues
Hey
hey,
the
working
man,
the
working
man
like
me
I
ain′t
never
been
on
welfare,
that's
one
place
I
won′t
be
Cause
I'll
be
working
long
as
my
two
hands
are
fit
to
use
I
drink
a
little
beer
in
a
tavern
Sing
a
little
bit
of
these
working
man
blues
Sometimes
I
think
about
leaving,
do
a
little
bummin
around
I
wanna
throw
my
bills
out
the
window
catch
a
train
to
another
town
But
I
go
back
working
I
gotta
buy
my
kids
a
brand
new
pair
of
shoes
Yeah
drink
a
little
beer
in
a
tavern,
Cry
a
little
bit
of
these
working
man
blues
Hey
hey,
the
working
man,
the
working
man
like
me
I
ain′t
never
been
on
welfare,
that's
one
place
I
won't
be
Cause
I′ll
be
working
long
as
my
two
hands
are
fit
to
use
I
drink
a
little
beer
in
a
tavern
Sing
a
little
bit
of
these
working
man
blues
Yeah
drink
a
little
beer
in
a
tavern,
Cry
a
little
bit
of
these
working
man
blues
