The Work Song Lyrics


You're born into life--learn to discover
They take you for life--no time to recover
Work, baby work
Roll with the mob--dance to the rhythm
Give all you got and take what you're given
Work, baby workHold back the pain--fight for the fever
Work for your girl--work hard to relieve herWork, baby work
Everyday you fight with your job
Fight with your lover hold back the mob
Run for your cover
Work, baby workBreak out tonite--reach out, now don't let go
Put all your guns away
Turn out the light--reach out, now let me know
It all works out-oh yeaLife, she's a bitch--grab on to it
It ain't whatcha do, it's all how ya do it
Work, baby work
Pray to your god--never say 'never'
Run for your life if it takes you forever

Work, baby workDon't hurry now--kick back, now take it slow
Put all your guns away
Break out tonite--tomorrow surely knows
It all works out--oh yea
Work, baby work
