Lyrics

A Working Man
Copyright 2021 Peter Oleksiak

Verse 1:
I've paid my dues on this farm
Ever since the age of three
There's no pencil stuck in my hand
A shovel is the tool for me
I planted fields of corn and wheat
As far as the eye can see

Chorus:
All my life I've been outside
plowing this land
It's an honest day and honest pay
with God as a helping hand
There is something you must understand
I'm a working man,
I'm a working man
I stand tall and I'm proud that I am
A working man

Verse 2:
I have six mouths to feed
And a roof that leaks in the rain
I don't have a fancy car
Or a summer place in Maine
But my workplace has no walls
And I don't need to take a train

Chorus:
All my life I've been outside
plowing this land
It's an honest day and honest pay
with God as a helping hand
There is something you must understand
I'm a working man,
I'm a working man
I stand tall and I'm proud that I am
A working man

Verse 3:
I wouldn't trade this simple life
even for a million dollars
Never really liked white shirts
I prefer a blue collar
I want to be a living testament
to my dead father
He was a working man

Chorus/Outro:
All my life I've been outside
plowing this land
It's an honest day and honest pay
with God as a helping hand
There is something you must understand
I'm a working man,
I'm a working man,
I stand tall and I'm proud that I am
A working man
A working man
A working man
A working man
