Working For The Man Lyrics - Orbison Roy

Hey now you better listen to me everyone of you 

We got a lotta, lotta, lotta, lotta work to do 

Forget about your woman and that water can 

Today were working for the man 

Well pick up your feet 

We've got a deadline to meet 

I'm gonna see you make it on time 

Don't relax 

I want elbows and backs 

I want to see everybody from behind 

'Cause your working for the man working for the man 

You gotta make him a hand when you're working for the man 

So I'm pickin' 'em up and I'm laying 'em down 

I believe he's gonna work me into the ground 

I pull to the left, I heave to the right 

I want to kill him but it wouldn't be right 

'Cause I'm working for the man, working for the man 

I gotta make him a hand when you're working for the man 

Well the boss man's daughter sneaks me water 

Every time her daddy's down the line 

She says meet me tonight love a me right 

And everything is gonna be fine 

So I slave all day without much pay 

And I'm just biding my time 

'Cause the company and the daughter, you see 

They're both gonna be all mine 

Yah I'm gonna be the man, I'm gonna be the man 

Gotta make him a hand if I'm gonna be the man 

Working for the man, working for the man 

I gotta make him a hand 

Working for the man
