lirik lagu dusty drake - i am the working man
that’s what i’m talkin’ about.
ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
i cut my teeth on an old lawn-mower,
cleanin’ out gutters, doin’ other people’s ch-r-s.
after school. weekends an’ holidays.
yeah, ever since then, all i’ve known,
is my nose on fire from the grindstone,
a lifetime built on an hourly wage.
muscled arms an’ calloused hands:
i am the workin’ man.
the sun comes up, the sun goes down,
gotta keep this world turnin’ ’round.
blazin’ hot, freezin’ cold:
no matter what, it still goes on.
pushin’, pullin’, pourin’, mixin’,
somebody’s gotta fix it:
i am the workin’ man,
yes, i am.
now i’ve laid asphalt an’ i’ve laid brick:
i’ve hung sheet, rock and shovelled sh–,
eat my lunch down at the kwickie-mart.
oh, i fill the potholes on easy-street,
so show some respect when you look at me.
i’m just out here tryin’ to do my part.
an’ i sleep good when the day comes to an end,
’cause i am the workin’ man.
the sun comes up, the sun goes down,
gotta keep this world turnin’ ’round.
blazin’ hot, freezin’ cold:
no matter what, it still goes on.
pushin’, pullin’, pourin’, mixin’,
somebody’s gotta fix it:
i am the workin’ man.
i can swing a hammer, turn a wrench,
build a tower, dig a ditch,
drive a truck that shakes the earth,
somebody’s gotta do the dirty work.
the sun comes up, the sun goes down,
gotta keep this world turnin’ ’round.
blazin’ hot, freezin’ cold:
no matter what, it still goes on.
pushin’, pullin’, pourin’, mixin’,
somebody’s gotta fix it:
i am…
i am the workin’ man.
yes i am,
oh. the workin’ man.
