Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作词 : LeDoux
[00:12.63] Well, I'm just a Workin' Man's Dollar
[00:14.94] In the pocket of his old blue jeans
[00:17.87] I ain't like my Wall Street brother
[00:20.37] He's in a bank so shiny and clean
[00:23.13] Well, I'm faded and I'm wrinkled
[00:26.25] Tattered and stained with sweat
[00:28.69] But I'm the 1st one called
[00:30.57] When Uncle Sam Needs a hand with the National Debt
[00:38.88] I've been wages for the farm hand
[00:41.62] For drivin' an old John Deere
[00:44.13] I've been laid on a bar in a tavern
[00:46.76] To buy a workin' man an ice-cold beer
[00:49.69] I've been tipped to a truck-stop waitress
[00:52.69] Taped where I was torn
[00:55.31] And in the hand of a child I was laid on a plate
[00:58.63] In a church on Sunday morn
[01:02.38] They say I'm the root of all evil
[01:05.13] I bring lust, power and greed
[01:07.82] But this Workin' Man's Dollar only buys the things
[01:12.82] A workin' man really needs
[01:25.57] Well, they say I'm worth about fifty-cents
[01:27.88] In this modern inflated age
[01:31.00] But don't tell that to the young man slavin'
[01:33.63] To make it on a minimum wage
[01:36.13] Or that single workin' mother
[01:38.81] She's been scapin' to make ends meet
[01:41.69] To make a house a home
[01:43.31] Keep food on the table
[01:44.81] And shoes on her baby's feet
[01:51.69] Well, I know my days are numbered
[01:54.44] I'm gettin' threadbare and wearin' thin
[01:57.19] And they'll replace me with another
[01:59.82] But I'd do it all again
[02:02.94] Cuz I've seen this great big country
[02:05.63] Passed from hand to callused hand
[02:08.50] And I've got to say that I'm mighty proud
[02:11.32] That I belong to a workin' man
[02:15.63] They say I'm the root of all evil
[02:18.32] I bring lust, power and greed
[02:21.06] But this Workin' Man's Dollar only buys the things
[02:25.75] A workin' man really needs
