Working Man Blues
Recorded by Merle Haggard
G
It's a big job just getting by with nine kids and a wife
I been a working man dang near all my life
C G
I'll be working long as my two hands are fit to use
D7
I'll drink my beer in a tavern
C G
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
C
But I'll go back working come Monday morning
G
I'm right back with the crew
D7
I'll drink a little beer that evening
C G
Sing a little bit of these working man blues
Sometimes I think about leaving do a little bumming around
I wanna throw my bills out the window catch a train to another town
C G
But I go back working I gotta buy my kids a brand new pair of shoes
D7
Yeah drink a little beer in a tavern
C G
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
C G
Cause I'll be working long as my two hands are fit to use
D7
I drink a little beer in a tavern
C G
Sing a little bit of these working man blues
repeat #3
D7
Yeah drink a little beer in a tavern
C G
Cry a little bit of these working man blues
