Manny Charlton - Working Man lyrics

rate me

All of his life he's been a working man

Up every morning in the dark and rain

Every Friday night he gets his take home pay

And he hands it all over and he don't complain

All of his life he's been a working man

He never pushed paper but he used his hands

And all that he was his father's way

So he'll walk in his footsteps to his dying day

Put your hands together for the working man

Puts food on the table for his wife and weans

My daddy spent his life as a working man

And he worked for a year for his week in Spain

All of his life he's been a working man

Up every morning in the dark and rain

Every Friday night he gets his take home pay

And he hands it all over and he don't complain

All of his life he's been a working man

He never pushed paper but he used his hands

And all that he was his father's way

So he'll walk in his footsteps to his dying day

Put your hands together for the working man

Puts food on the table for his wife and weans

My daddy spent his life as a working man

And he worked for a year for his week in Spain
