Lyrics Kurt Nilsen

Kurt Nilsen

Working Man

You see I need to get out of this place

As you see I can’t get no more space

There is nothing that I’d rather do

Than spend all my time with you

Well I’ve been working seven days a week

Coming home late then going to sleep

Soon as I close my eyes and slip away

It's up on and off again

But see I do it for the both of us

I saw that you were trying too

Oh look there’s that open space where we

Been waiting for so long

But somehow

It just feels so wrong

So I’ll go back to what I know best

Hard time working at the factory here

Shoveling my way through all these days

Until I see you again

Ohh

You see I can’t get to where I want to go

Blinded by the hours when I step in

Hoping that the pay is better than

The last I got

Everyday’s a brand new start

You see I do it for the both of us

I saw that you were trying too

Oh look there’s that open space where we

Been waiting for so long

But somehow

It just feels so wrong

This is my life I know it well

I’ll be sitting stuck till the day I die

Somehow I’ll always smile because

I know that you are on my side

But see I do it for the both of us

I saw that you were trying too

Oh look there’s that open space where we

Been wanting for so long

But somehow

It just feels so wrong
