Working Class Man Songtext
von Jimmy Barnes

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

Well, he′s a steel town disciple
He's a legend of his kind
He's running like a cyclone
Across the wild mid-western sky
Oh-oh-oh, 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 a simple man
With a heart of gold
In a complicated land
Oh, 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
Because he just made up his mind
A life′s too short for burning bridges
I take it one day at a time
Oh-oh-oh, he's a working class man
Oh-oh-oh, he′s a working class man
Oh, yeah
Yes, he is
Well, he's a working class man, oh
Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma


I tell you he's a working class man
(Working class, working class man) oh, yes he is
(Working class, working class man) I wanna tell you he′s a working class man
(Working class, working class man) oh, ma-ma-ma
(Working class, working class man) I got to tell you he′s a working class man
(Working class, working class man) oh, yeah
(Working class, working class man) I tell you he's a working class man
(Working class, working class man)
(Working class, working class man) I tell ya, he′s a working class man
(Working class, working class man) yes, he is
