Billy Joe Shaver - Hard Workin' Man Lyrics

Billy Joe Shaver Lyrics

"Hard Workin' Man"

And I'm a hardworkin' man
Yes, I'm doin' the best that I can
I'm easy to please, and I do in a squeeze
Yeah, I'm a hard workin' man

My hands is both calloused and worn
There's some fingers that's gone all for one
I'm rough as a cob, but I do a good job
Yeah, I'm a hardworkin' man

A hardworkin' man, yes, I am
I'm a hardworkin' man
I'm salt of the earth all across the street and land
Yes, I'm a hardworkin' man

On the day that I lay down and die
Ain't too many folks gonna cry
But I'll bet you my boots
I won't be wearin' no suit when I say my last good, goodbye

A hardworkin' man, hallelujah
I'm a hardworkin' man
I'm salt of the earth all across this great land
Yes, I am hardworkin' man
Yeah, I'm a hardworkin' man
