BON JOVI LYRICS - Work For The Working Man

"Work For The Working Man"



I'm here trying to make a living

I ain't living just to die

Never getting back what I'm giving

Can someone somewhere help me justify

Why these strong hands are on the un-employment line



Now there's nothing left

But what's on my mind

oh ohh oh ohh



Who's gonna work for the working man

(Hurt) for the working man

(Work) Get your hands in the dirt

Who's gonna work off the curse

(Work) Brother I'll be damned

(Work) If I don't raise a hand

(Work) Whose gonna work work work

For the working man, working man



Empty pockets full of worry

Had to get two jobs

And it was hard enough just getting by

With the grace of god I'll get us through

I only know what I know how to do

I'm the only one who's got to look my family in the eye



Day after day

Night after night

Oh Ohh Oh Ohh



Who's gonna work for the working man

(Hurt) for the working man

(Work) Get your hands in the dirt

Who's gonna work off the curse

(Work) Brother I'll be damned

(Work) If I don't raise a hand

(Work) Whose gonna work work work

For the working man, working man, working man, working man



I lost my pension

They took my I. D

These were my friends

These were my dreams

These were my hopes

These are my streets

Can you hear me?



Who's gonna work for the working man

(Hurt) for the working man

(Work) Get your hands in the dirt

Who's gonna work off the curse

(Work) Brother I'll be damned

(Work) If I don't raise a hand

(Work) Whose gonna work work work

For the working man, working man, working man, working man



These were my friens

These were my dreams

These were my hopes

These are my... streets
