I get up on Monday and I work all day
I go 'til Friday when I get my pay
I'm a long, long way from the promised land
I'm just a working manIt ain't so bad in this factory town
I drink with my buddies when the sun go down
Some of you people may not understand
No, no, I'm just a working man
I'm just a working manI'm a working man, that's what I do
I'm a working man just like you
I'm a working man, I know who I am
I sweat for my money and I work with my handsWorking man, working man
Working man, I'm just a working man
Hear me people, I'm just a working manOnly one way to beat the small town blues
Take off your boots, put on your rock 'n' roll shoes
Come over there, baby 'cause I've got something to say
We're gonna rock our troubles awayI'm a working man
I'm a working man
You've got to understand
I'm just a working manWorking man, I'm a working man
Working man, I'm just a working man
Just like you, I'm a working man
