a job of work
Singer:paxton, tom
i hate unemployment and i'll tell you why
i wanna keep working 'til the day i die
i do it well and when i can't feed my family
give me a job of work to do
give me a job of work to do
the man from the government says it's fine
to walk on over to the free food line
nice of the government to be so fair
but i don't want my friends to see me there
give me a job of work to do
give me a job of work to do
i was born and raised in these old hills
i never left 'em and i never will
and all that we want is a job to do
give me a job of work to do
give me a job of work to do
these are the worst times i have seen
i don't want to seem ungrateful or mean
but a man's got to raise his family
and i can't stand to raise 'em on charity
give me a job of work to do
give me a job of work to do
