Song lyrics

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 we're 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 wanna 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

Oh well 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 wanna kill him but it wouldn't be right

'Cause I'm working for the man working for the man
Gotta make him a hand when you're working for the man

Well the boss man's daughter sneaks me water
Everytime 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
'cause I'm just a-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 gonna be the man
Gotta make him a hand if I'm gonna be the man

Working for the man working for the man
Gonna be the man gonna be the man
Gotta make him a hand working for the man
