Work-in hard to make a liv-in
bring-ing shelt-er from the ra-a-in
a fath-ers son left to carr-y on
blue den-im in his vein
oh oh o-oh he's a work-ing class man
well he's a steel town de-ci-ple
he's a leg-end of his ki-i-ind
he's runn-ing like a cyc-lone
a-cross the wi-ld mid west-ern sky
oh oh o-oh he's a work-ing class man
he be-lieves in god and el-v-is
he gets out when he can
he did his time in vi-et-nam
still mad at un-cle sam
he's a sim-ple man
with a heart of gold
in a comp-li-cat-ed land
oh he's a work-ing class man
well he loves a litt-le wo-man
some-day he'll make his wi-i-ife
sav-ing all the ov-er-time
for the one love of his life
he ain't worr-ied a-bout to-mor-row
cause he just made up his mi-i-ind
life's too short for burn-ing br-idges
take it one day at a ti-me
oh oh o oh he's a work-ing class man
oh oh o oh he's a work-ing class m-a-a-n
o oh yeah
yes he i-is
well he's a work-ing class m-a-an
o oh ye-ah

i tell you he's a work-ing class man
