RUSH
- Working Man Lyrics / with translationsI get up at seven, yeah
And I go to work at nine
I got no time for livin'
Yes, I'm workin' all the time
[Chorus:]
It seems to me
I could live my life
A lot better than I think I am
I guess that's why they call me
They call me the working man
They call me the working man
I guess that's what I am
I get home at five o'clock
And I take myself out a nice, cold beer
Always seem to be wonderin'
Why there's nothin' goin' down here
[Chorus]
Well, they call me the working man
I guess that's what I am
And I go to work at nine
I got no time for livin'
Yes, I'm workin' all the time
[Chorus:]
It seems to me
I could live my life
A lot better than I think I am
I guess that's why they call me
They call me the working man
They call me the working man
I get home at five o'clock
And I take myself out a nice, cold beer
Always seem to be wonderin'
Why there's nothin' goin' down here
[Chorus]
Well, they call me the working man
I guess that's what I am
