Hands Of A Working Man

At the local diner just outside of town

He comes in an hour early just to beat the morning crowd

He stares out the window and stirs his coffee cup

Another day, another dollar short of catchin up

Same old job and same old dull routine

But in his heart he knows what it brings

A two bedroom house for his family of three

He's givin' his all, makin' ends meet

A secondhand car, a washing machine

They may not have much, but he gets what they need

With the hands of a working man

Down at the factory, standin' in line

He waits to punch the time clock, a million worries on his mind

Oh, Jimmy's needin' braces and Betty's needin' time

And the problems that he's facin, they're all building up inside

Same old job and same old dull routine

But in his heart he knows what it brings

A two bedroom house for his family of three

He's givin' his all, makin' ends meet

A secondhand car, a washing machine

They don't have much, but he gets what they need

With the hands of a working man

Same old job and same old dull routine

But in his heart he knows what it brings

A two bedroom house for his family of three

He's givin' his all, makin' ends meet

A secondhand car, a washing machine

They don't have much, but he gets what they need

With the hands of a working man

With the hands of a working man
