  Intro:	A7 (8 bars)

  

  Verse1: A

          It's a big job just gettin' by with 9 kids and a wife

                  D7

          I'll be working

                                          A        

          long as my two hands are fit to use

          I'll drink my beer in a tavern,

          D7                                      A

          sing a little bit of these working man blues

  

  

  Verse2: 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

          but I'll go back workin,  

          come Monday morning I'm right back with the crew

          I'll drink a little beer that evening, 

          sing a little bit of these working man blues

  

  Verse3: 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

          cause I'll be working

          long as my two hands are fit to use

          I drink a little beer in a tavern

          sing a little bit of these working man blues

  

          [SOLO - one verse]

  

  Verse4: Sometimes I think about leaving, do a little bummin around

          I wanna throw my bills out the window catch a train to another town

          but I go back working

          I gotta buy my kids a brand new pair of shoes

          yeah drink a little beer in a tavern,

          cry a little bit of these working man blues

  

          [VERSE3]

  

          yeah drink a little beer in a tavern,

          cry a little bit of these working man blues
