Working Life Songtext
Early in the morning factory whistle blows,
A man gets from his bed, drags on his overalls,
Mama packs his lunch, he steps out in the morning light,
For the work, for the work, for the working life. (2x)

Keep on working baby, every day of your life,
One of these days gonna come your way,
For the work, for the work, for the working life.

From the mansions of power, to the mansions of pain,
I see my daddy walking through those gates in the rain,
Factory takes his blood, but it gets him to life,
For the work, for the work, for the working life. (2x)

End of the day, factory whistle cries,
I see men walking through these gates with death in their eyes.
You better believe,
somebody's gonna get hurt tonight,
For the work, for the work, for the working life. (2x)

Keep on working, keep on working, keep on working, keep on work, working
Every day

Yeahehehey

Mansions of power, mansions of pain,
I see my daddy walking through those gates in the rain,
You better believe,
somebody's gonna get hurt tonight,
For the work, for the work, for the working life. (3x)

Keep on working, keep on working, keep on working, keep on working, keep on working,
work, work, work, work, work.
