Sun comes up, I'm on the clock
Goes back down again about the time I stop
Same old song, day after day
Twice the work, half the pay

My old truck, up on blocks
The cost of living's more than I got
Payday comes and they rob me blind
They take theirs and part of mine

Working for the man ain't working
For this man anymore
I've had it up to here and that's for damn sure
I bet you understand I'm leaving
When you see me hit that door
Working for the man ain't working
For this man anymore

Adios, sayonara
You won't be seeing  me in here tomorrow
I ain't got a clue what I'm gonna do
But don't call me and I won't call you

Working for the man
Ain't working for this man anymore
I've had it up to here and that's for damn sure
I bet you understand I'm leaving
When you see me hit that door
Working for the man
Ain't working for this man anymore

Working for the man
Working for the man
Working for the man
Ain't working for this man anymore
