As he wakes up and lifts his head And drags himself out of the bed He thinks about what is to come And if the day will bring him down He'll brush his teeth and clean his face Put his hair all in its place And then he'll head on out the door And make his way out to the town A working man may never be Left alone to live life free To keep up with the bills to pay He'll have to work another day Wrench that nut, clean the floor Fix the hinges on the door Punch out when the day is done Hit the bar to find some fun I don't know, but it's been said Working hard will keep him fed But what about the toll it takes On what kind of life he wants to lead? Rent goes up and prices soar Can't afford the bar no more Wages haven't changed in years The more he gives, the more he'll bleed A working man may never be Left alone to live life free To keep up with the bills to pay He'll have to work another day Wrench that nut, clean the floor Fix the hinges on the door Punch out when the day is done And hit the bar to find some fun A working man may never be Left alone to live life free To keep up with the bills to pay He'll have to work another day Wrench that nut, clean the floor Fix the hinges on the door Punch out when the day is done And hit the bar to find some fun
