Lyrics Merle Haggard

Merle Haggard

Five Days a Week

Five days a week, all week long

I work my fingers to the bone

And if I get laid off, another job I'll seek

'Cause I'm a blue collard man

Work all I can five days a week

Five days a week, eight hours a day

And then the weekends mine and I can blow my mind or kneel and pray

When I was just fifteen I had to earn my keep

'Cause I'm a blue collard man

Worked all I can five days a week

Five days a week, eight hours a day

And then the weekends mine and I can blow my mind or kneel and pray

For life ain't free you got to earn your keep

If you're a blue collard man

You work all you can five days a week
