Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, I get up at 7, yeah
And I go to work at 9
I got no time for livin', yes
I'm workin' all the time
[Chorus]
It seems to me I could live my life
A lot better than I think I am
I guess that's why they call me
They call me the working man
[Verse 2]
They call me the working man
I guess that's what I am
[Verse 3]
Yes, I get home at 5 o'clock
And I take myself out a nice cold beer
Always seem to be wonderin'
Why there's nothing goin' down here
[Chorus]
It seems to me I could live my life
A lot better than I think I am
I guess that's why they call me
The working man
[Refrain]
Well, they call me the working man
I guess that's what I am
[Refrain]
Well, they call me the working man
I guess that's what I am
[Verse 4]
Well, I get up at 7, yeah
And I go to work at 9
I got no time for livin', yes
I'm workin' all the time
[Refrain]
It seems to me I could live my life
A lot better than I think I am
I guess that's why they call me
They call me the working man
[Chorus]
Well, they call me the working man
I guess that's what I am
They call me the working man
I guess that's what I am
