"Workingman's Folk" lyrics

(Hmm)
(Hmm)

I wish my old man would walk through this door
I think I got a few natural ice in that igloo on the floor
Can he be just forty one and grey
I just got a few things to say, before life gets in the way

So just take your time across that field
Stop loving uphill or on icy lakes
Try to take the hands you know
And when you get upset don't try to fight it alone

(Hmm)
(Hmm)
(1, 2, 3, 4)

(Ooh)

Father Time may push you around
You're not afraid to lay your body down
And pull those flowers in the ground

Father Time may push you around
You're not afraid to lay your body down
And pull those flowers to your crown

No sense in doin' what I told ya
You never have to fight it alone

No sense in doin' what I told ya
You never have to fight it alone
(Woah, woah, woah)
(Ahh)
(Woah, woah, woah-ohh)

So just take your time across that field
Stop lovin' uphill or on icy lakes
Try to take the hands you know
And when you get upset don't try to fight it alone
And when you get upset please don't stay home
(Hmm)
