Working Man

Stumble from my good warm bed
Monday morning, oh my head
Gotta go and do it all again
Wake up baby, rise and shine
It's coffee, eggs and bacon time
Walk your working man out to the car

The boss is in his usual mood
Not one thing does he approve
Sometimes you just can't keep him satisfied
Up and down the assembly line
Weary faces just like mine

They're making it hard on the working man
Trying to make a living on the installment plan
His money goes right through his hands
Heaven, help him if you think you can
They're making it hard on the working man

Big policeman in his prime
Sits behind his billboard sign
Aims his radar gun right straight at me
A letter from the IRS
Says "Boy, your taxes are a mess"
Is this the way the good life's supposed to be?

They're making it hard on the working man
Trying to make a living any way he can
His money goes right through his hands
Heaven, help him if you think you can
They're making it hard on the working man

Stumble from my good warm bed
Monday morning, oh my head
Gotta go and do it all again
Too much room in the Frigidaire
The kids all need new shoes to wear
Payment's late on my old truck again

They're making it hard on the working man
Trying to make a living any way he can
His money goes right through his hands
Heaven help him if you think you can
They're making it hard on the working man
