Working Class Man Songtext
von Jimmy Barnes feat. Jonathan Cain & Ian Moss

Working hard to make a living
Bringing shelter from the rain
A father′s son left to carry on
Blue denim in his veins
Oh ho wo, he's a working class man

Yeah he′s a steel town disciple
He's a legend of his kind
A-running like a cyclone
Across the wild Australian sky
Wo ho wo, he's a working class man

He believes in God and Elvis
He gets out when he can
He did his time in Vietnam
Still mad at Uncle Sam
He′s just a simple man
With a heart of gold
In a complicated land
Ho, yeah he′s a working class man


Well he loves a little woman
Someday he'll make his wife
Saving all the overtime
For the one love of his life

He ain′t worried about tomorrow
'Cause he just made up his mind
A life′s too short for burning bridges
I take it one day at a time
Wo oh oh, he's a working class man, oh yeah

Wo oh, yeah he′s a working class man (working class, working class man)
Oh yeah
Yes he is (working class, working class man)
Yeah he's a working class man (working class, working class man)
Oh my my my my my my my my my my my my my my my
I'll tell you he′s a working class man

(Working class, working class man)
Yes he is
I tell ya he′s a working class man
(Working class, working class man)
Yes he is
(Working class, working class man)
Oh, I tell you he's a working class man
