working man’s wage lyrics
[verse 1]
i’ve seen mornings when a thousand bales of hay
looked like a mountain to a boy my age
and i’ve seen my papa in that hot southern sun
move those mountains one by one
[verse 2]
and i’ve seen that same man come home from the mill
pull forty hours for a hundred dollar bill
i’ve watched him struggle and i’ve watched him age
raising a family on a working man’s wage
[chorus]
i grew up on a working man’s wage
blood, sweat and tears on every dollar he made
for the little he earned, there was so much he gave
and i hopе i am worthy of a working man’s wage
[verse 2]
i pick this guitar six nights a week
papa can’t believе they’re paying me
it’d be so easy to let it go to my head
there’s just one thing that i can’t forget
[chorus]
i grew up on a working man’s wage
blood, sweat and tears on every dollar he made
for the little he earned, there was so much he gave
and i hope i am worthy of a working man’s wage
[outro]
i’ve seen mornings when a thousand bales of hay
looked like a mountain to a boy my age
