[Verse 1]
It's [G]a big job just gettin'

I'll [D]drink my beer in a tavern,
[C]Sing a little bit of these working [G]man blues

[Verse 2]
I [G]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 work[C]in,
come Monday morning I'm right back with the [G]crew
I'll [D]drink a little beer that evening,
[C]Sing a little bit of these
working man [G]blues

Well Hey hey, the working man,
