By Jimmy Barne Working hard to make a living Bringing shelter from the rain A father, son left to carry on Blue denim in his vein Oh oh oh he's a working class man Well he's a steel time deciple He's a legend of his kind He's running like a psyclone Across the wild mid western sky Oh oh oh he's a working class man He believes in god and elvis He gets out when he can He did his time in vietnam Still mad at uncle sam He's a simple manWith a heart of gold In a complicated land Oh he's a working class man Well he loves a little woman Someday he'll make his wife Saving all the overtimeFor the one love of his life He ain't worried about tomorrow Cause he just made up his mind Life's too short for burning bridges Take it one day at a time Oh oh oh he's a working class man Oh oh oh he's a working class man Ooh yeah Yes he is Well he's a working class manOohMa ma . . . . . . . i tell you he's a working class manI tell you he's a working class man I tell you he's a working class man
