Lyrics:
Mmm, mmm-mmm
Ooh-ooh
Shake ya ass, but watch yourself
Shake ya ass, show me what you workin' with
Shake ya ass, but watch yourself
Shake ya
By day I'm a workin' man,
Layin' bricks or layin' pipe.
I don't stand out in a crowd;
Just look like one of the guys.
Little do they know,
When
I've been workin' like I've never been
I struggle every day but I just can't let the devil in
And if I knew back then what I know right now
What I
Beware of lies
They'll always take you by surprise
Bringin' pieces of pain
You'll maybe never sleep again
Me and Sailor workin' on a secret
Beware of lies
They'll always take you by surprise
Bringin' pieces of pain
You'll maybe never sleep again
Me and Sailor workin' on a secret
leavin' a lonely town
I'm leavin' a lonely town
My old man he's workin' on his truck
Ain't never had much to say
Just shakes my hand and wishes me
Mmm, mmm-mmm
Ooh-ooh
Shake ya ass, but watch yourself
Shake ya ass, show me what you workin' with
Shake ya ass, but watch yourself
Shake ya
Well, I left Kentucky back in '49
An' went to Detroit workin' on a 'sembly line
The first year they had me puttin' wheels on Cadillac's
Every
labor by the day
Ain't much pay for a man
[Chorus:]
Haulin' coal down the down river
And he won't be comin' home for a long time
Torches burning
side of town
Young and foolish, man don't you know
All we could see were
Ladies in the night, walkin' a straight line
Ladies in the night, workin
seat recline, they notice the hand
Car movin' slow, driven by the invisible man
Everything on the dash, digital and
I got a fast stashbox don't make
demise will be televised, yeah
And as for Q, man, I changed his life a couple times
Nigga was at Kroger workin' double time
Y'all actin' like he made
Tryin' to make a livin
That's the bottom line
It ain't easy tryin' to stretch
A nickle into a dime
Sweatin' for the dollar
Workin' for the man
I wanna dedicate this song to every workin’ man and woman in this country
And to everyone that’s tryin’ to run a business and constantly punished,
gonna roll you away
Workin' nine to five
(Nine to five) what a way to make a livin'
Barely, gettin' by
(I'm gettin' by) it's all takin' and no
late
Listen more to things that Roni says
Should have been by Buki's side when her mother died
Should have talked to Sound Sultan more before he
Everyone knows I'm the hard workin' peace lovin' type
I walk a thousand miles out of my way
Just to keep from a fight
Poke fun at the way that
achieved
Man, what you'll need is, you got to have
Talkin' 'bout a sweet woman by your side
Talkin' 'bout a sweet woman by your side
When you reach your
the paved veins devoured by greed, urban decay
Stories waiting to be told, all the tears within they hold
My man had to go with them; slaving away, mine
around
Cause I don't come in like no lion just to go out like a lamb
I'm three times seven baby that makes twenty-one
Well I love on sight and I fly by
I'm holdin The Hands of a workin man
He's makin a livin and doin the best he can
I feel the soft touch, the skin split & rough
I feel the gentle
It's a big job gettin' by with nine kids and a wife
You know I've been a workin' man dang near all my life
I'll keep on working long as my two
lookin' for true love
No, he didn't believe in that stuff
Eddie LeGrande was a hard workin' man
Who just needed a little good luck
His shoes were
ya have it young man
But we hear that you won't be workin' here much longer
Angel of mercy
Won't you please look down on me?
Oh, angel of mercy
