Текст пісні
Hey, now
You better listen to me, every one of you
We got a lotta, lotta work to do
Forget about your women and that water can
Today, you're working for the man
Well, pick up your feet, we got a deadline to meet
I wanna see you make it on time
Now, don't relax, I want your elbows and backs
I wanna see everyone from behind
You're working for the man
Working for the man
You gotta make him a hand
When you're working for the man
Well, I'm picking him up, I'm laying him down
I believe he's gonna work me into the ground
I pull to the left, I heave to the right
I wanna kill him, but it wouldn't be right
You're working for the man
Working for the man
You gotta make him a hand
When you're working for the man
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Well, the boss man's daughter feeds me water
Every time her daddy's down the line
She says, "Meet me tonight and love me right
And everything is gonna be fine"
So I slave all day without much pay
I'm just abiding my time
'Cause the company and the daughter, you see
They're both gonna be all mine
Yes, I'm gonna be the man
I'm gonna be the man
You gotta give me your hand
When I'm gonna be the man
Yes, you're working for the man
Working for the man
You gotta give him a hand
When you're working for the man
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Thank you very much
