I Hate to Work

Work, I got to go to work
Work, Work, Work I hate to work
Work, I got to go to work
Work, Work, Work I hate to work

Somebody got to kiss that redhead over there
Somebody got to smell that flower in her hair
That?s the kind of thing I like, baby that?s right down my line
And I could get real good at it, if I had the time

Work, I got to go to work
Work, Work, Work I hate to work
Work, I got to go to work
Work, Work, Work I hate to work

Somebody got to rub this dog behind the ears
Somebody got to sit and drink up all this beer
That?s the kind of thing I like, baby that?s right down my line
And I could get real good at it, if I had the time

Work, I got to go to work
Work, Work, Work I hate to work
Work, I got to go to work
Work, Work, Work I hate to work

Now lets get this straight cause I ain?t lazy, I give good value for my pay
But the thing that keeps drivin?me so crazy is how this job cuts into my day

Somebody got to hose this dust off my truck
Somebody got to read that ole? book from Sears & Roebuck
Somebody got to make sure that water?s wet
Somebody got to sit right here and make sure the sun sets
Somebody got to watch that grass how it grows
Somebody got to make sure them ducks all fly in a row

Work I hate to go to work
Work, work, work, I hate to work

(Spoken)
I don?t think I can break away from all this today, I?m just too tired,
I can?t make it in, I?m not goin? in?. Oh Man?


A fine upbeat country boogie with very original lyrics and a nice twist on why going to work is a bad option. Good musicianship and steady vocal with no pitch issues. You took a chance on using all the FX on the vocal.
