Working Man Blues Merle Haggard
Intro: A7 (8 bars)
[A]It's a big job gettin' by with 9 kids and a wife
Yeah but I been a workin' man dang near all my life
I'll keep on [D7]workin�??
Long as my two hands are fit to [A]use
I [E7]drink my beer at a tavern
And [D7]sing a little bit of these workin�?? ma[A]n blues
[A]Well I keep my nose on the grindstone, work hard every day
Gettin�?? tired on the weekend, after I draw my pay
But I go back [D7]workin�??,
Come Monday mornin�?? I'm right back with th[A]e crew
I [E7]drink a little beer that evenin�??,
[D7]sing a little bit of these workin�?? ma[A]n blues
[A]Sometimes I think about leavin�??, do a little bummin�?? around
Throw my bills out the window catch me a train to another town
But I go back [D7]workin�??
I got to buy my kids a brand new pair of [A]shoes
I [E7]drink my beer at a tavern
And [D7]cry a little bit of these workin�?? ma[A]n blues
Here comes the workin�?? man
Instrumental solo for one verse
[A]Well hey hey, the workin�?? man, the workin�?? man like me
Never been on welfare, and that's one place he would not be
He�??d b[D7]e workin�??
Just as long as his two hands are fit to [A]use
Might [E7]drink a little beer at a tavern
[D7]Sing a little bit of them workin�?? ma[A]n blues
This song is for the workin�?? man
