I Go to Work Songtext
von Delta Rae

Sun rises (sun rises over me)
Filters through the drapes at dawn
Daddy taught me (Daddy taught me to believe)
I could be whatever I want
Think about him when the days get lonely
But now I′m a stranger in my own backyard and
People tell me I'll amount to nothing
They′re just snakes in the garden

I go to work everyday to be worthy
The ground on which I stand
I go to work, can't nobody can hurt me
This hammer in my hand
I go to work
Some turn to the bottle
Some find peace in the church
Whatever gets you through the nights alright
But in the day, I go to work


Sun setting (Sun setting in the evening)
Dreaming of a day of rest
Ain't complaining (I ain′t looking for a break)
Just wish it wasn′t check to check
Sometimes I wonder what my life was meant for
Will I be grinding 'til the day I′m buried?
I used to dream that I would climb great mountains
No time to worry

I go to work everyday to be worthy
The ground on which I stand
I go to work, can't nobody can hurt me
This hammer in my hand
I go to work
Some turn to the bottle
Some find peace in the church
Whatever gets you through the nights alright
But in the day, I go to work

Run, run, get it all done
Don′t neglect your daughter or your baby son
I said, a man's worth, measured by his purse
Never lets you rise above the goddamn dirt

I said, run, run, get it all done
Don′t neglect your daughter or your baby sons
I said, a man's worth, measured by his purse
Never lets you rise above the gods


I go to work everyday to be worthy
The ground on which I stand
I go to work, can't nobody can hurt me
This hammer in my hand
I go to work
Some turn to the bottle
Some find peace in the church
Whatever gets you through the nights alright
But in the day, I go to work
