With the help (F major) of Bare (G major) foot Jerry (F major) ,

Well it's a big job just getting by
With nine kids and a wife
You know I've been a working man
Dang near all my life
And I'll keep on work (C major) ing
Just as long as my two hands
are fit to use (G major)
I drink (D major) my beer in a tavern
Sing (C major) a little bit of (B flat major) these
Working man blues (G major)
I (C major) keep (G major) my nose to the grindstone
And work hard every day
I might get a little tired on the weekends
After I draw my pay
Then I go back work (C major) ing
Come Monday morning
I'm right back with the crew (G major)
I drink (D major) a little beer on the weekends
And sing (C major) a little (B flat major) bit of these
workin' man (G major) blues
And here comes that old work (C major) in' man
(F major) (G major) (C major) (G major)
(D major) (C major) (B flat major) (G major)
Sometimes I think about leav (C major) in' (B flat major)
And do a little bummin' around
I wanna throw my bills out the window
And catch a train to another town
(G major) I (D minor) go back work
