Working Man Blues / Always Late (With Your Love)

It's a big job just gettin' by with nine kids and a wife
But I been a workin' man dang near all my life
I'll be working long as my two hands are fit to use
I'll drink my beer in a tavern
Sing a little bit of these working man blues

I keep my nose on the grindstone, I work hard every day
I might get a little tired on the weekend after I draw my pay
But I'll go back workin, come Monday morning I'm right back with the crew
I'll drink a little beer that evening
Sing a little bit of these working man blues

Sometimes I think about leaving, do a little bummin' around
I wanna throw my bills out the window catch a train to another town
But I go back working I gotta buy my kids a brand new pair of shoes
Yeah I drink a little beer in a tavern
Cry a little bit of these working man blues

Hey hey, the working man, the working man like me
I ain't never been on welfare, that's one place I won't be
'Cause I'll be working long as my two hands are fit to use
I'll drink my beer in a tavern
Sing a little bit of these working man blues

Always late with your kisses
Won't you come to my arms, sweet darlin', and stay
Always late with your kisses
Why, oh why do you want to do me this way?

How long do you think I can wait
When you know you're always late
Always late with your kisses
Why, oh why do you want to do me this way?

Always late with your kisses
Won't you come to my arms, sweet darlin', and stay
Always late with your kisses
Why, oh why do you want to do me this way?

How long do you think I can wait
When you know you're always late
Always late with your kisses
Why, oh why do you want to do me this way?
