I Am the Working Man (Radio Edit) Lyrics

That's what I'm talkin' about
Ha, ha, ha, ha, haI cut my teeth on an old lawn-mower
Cleanin' out gutters, doin' other people's chores
After school, weekends an' holidaysYeah, ever since then, all I've known
Is my nose on fire from the grindstone
A lifetime built on an hourly wage
Muscled arms an' calloused hands
I am the workin' manThe sun comes up, the sun goes down
Gotta keep this world turnin' 'round
Blazin' hot, freezin' cold
No matter what, it still goes onPushin', pullin', pourin', mixin'
Somebody's gotta fix it
I am the workin' man, yes, I amNow, I've laid asphalt an' I've laid brick
I've hung sheet, rock and shovelled shit
Eat my lunch down at the Kwickie-MartOh, I fill the potholes on easy-street
So show some respect when you look at me
I'm just out here tryin' to do my part
An' I sleep good when the day comes to an end

'Cause I am the workin' manThe sun comes up, the sun goes down
Gotta keep this world turnin' 'round
Blazin' hot, freezin' cold
No matter what, it still goes onPushin', pullin', pourin', mixin'
Somebody's gotta fix it
I am the workin' manI can swing a hammer, turn a wrench
Build a tower, dig a ditch
Drive a truck that shakes the earth
Somebody's gotta do the dirty workThe sun comes up, the sun goes down
Gotta keep this world turnin' 'round
Blazin' hot, freezin' cold
No matter what, it still goes onPushin', pullin', pourin', mixin'
Somebody's gotta fix it
I am, I am the workin' man
Yes, I am oh, the workin' man
