Sammy Kershaw - National Working Woman's Holiday lyrics

rate me

(Roger Murrah/Pat Terry/James Dean Hicks)

(Track 4 - Time 3:11)

They oughta' run your picture in a magazine

'Cause you're the hardest working woman I've ever seen

If we weren't sinkin' in a river of debt

I'd say, "Quit that job and let 'em do it theirself"

I know we're depending on every dime

But I'm tired of you working that overtime

I'm gonna tell somebody

There ought to be a law against working that way

Tell 'em you're taking off this Friday

For the National Working Woman's Holiday

Honey I can tell you're feeling the strain

You deserve a break from that ball and chain

If the union won't say it, then it's up to me

They're just taking advantage of your loyalty

Everybody likes a little time and a half

But we both know you're worth more than that

I'm gonna tell somebody

There ought to be a law against working that way

Tell 'em you're taking off this Friday

For the National Working Woman's Holiday

I'll call in sick

And I'll be telling the truth

'Cause I'm sick and tired

Of how they're treating you

I'm gonna tell somebody

There ought to be a law against working that way

Tell 'em you're taking off this Friday

For the National Working Woman's Holiday

I'm gonna tell somebody

There ought to be a law against working that way

Tell 'em you're taking off this Friday

For the National Working Woman's Holiday
