Jimmy Barnes Working Class Man lyrics

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

Well, he's a steel time 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
'Cause he just made up his mind
Life's too short for burning bridges
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

Ooh, yeah
Yes, he is
Well, he's a working class man
Ooh, mama

I tell you, he's a working class man
I tell you, he's a working class man
I tell you, he's a working class man
