Working hard
to make a living
bringing shelter
from the rain
A father's son left
to carry on,
blue denim in his vein
Oh oh 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 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
'cos he just
made up his mind
Life's too short
for burning bridges
Take it one day
at a time
Oh oh oh oh
he's a working
class man
Oh oh oh oh
he's a working
class man
Oh yeah yeah
Yes he is
He's a working
class man
Ma ma ma ma ma
ma ma ma ma ma ma
ma ma ma man
He's a working
class man
