Forty Hour | |
Week (For A Livin') | |
There are people in this country who work hard every day. | |
Not for fame or fortune do they strive. | |
But the fruits of their labor are worth more than their pay. | |
And it's time a few of them were recognized. | |
Hello Detroit auto workers, let me thank you for your time. | |
You work a forty hour week for a livin', just to send it on down the line. | |
Hello Pittsburgh steel mill workers, let me thank you for your time. | |
You work a forty hour week for a livin', just to send it on down the line. | |
This is for the one who swings the hammer, driving home the nail. | |
Or the one behind the counter, ringing up the sale. | |
Or the one who fights the fires, the one who brings the mail. | |
For everyone who works behind the scenes. | |
You can see them every morning in the factories and the fields. | |
In the city streets and the quiet country towns. | |
Working together like spokes inside a wheel. | |
They keep this country turning around. | |
Hello Kansas wheat field farmer, let me thank you for your time. | |
You work a forty hour week for a livin', just to send it on down the line. | |
Hello West | |
Virginia coal miner, let me thank you for your time. | |
You work a forty hour week for a livin', just to send it on down the line. | |
This one is for the one who drives the big rig, up and down the road. | |
Or the one out in the warehouse, bringing in the load. | |
Or the waitress, the mechanic, the policeman on patrol. | |
For everyone who works behind the scenes. | |
With a spirit you can't replace with no machine. | |
Hello, America, | |
Let me thank you for your time. |
