When I get home from work
C G
I'll call up all my friends
D Em C
And we'll go bust up something beautiful
G
We'll have to build again
G
When I get home from work
C G
I'll wrestle off my clothes
D Em C
And leave em right inside the front door
G
Cause nobody's home to know
D
You see a hammer finds a nail
C G D
And a freight train needs the rails
Am
And I'm doing what I'm on this earth to do
Em D C
And I don't think on why I'm here where it hurts
E C
I'm just lucky to have the work
Em D C
Sunday morning I'm too tired to go to church
Em D C G
But I thank God for the work
G
When I get my reward
C G
My work will all be done
Em C
And I will sit back in my chair beside
G
The Father and the Son
G
No more holes to fill
C G D
And no more rocks to break
Em C
And no more loading boxes onto trucks
G
For someone else's sake
D
Cause a hammer needs a nail
C G
And the poor man's up for sell
D Am Am7
Guess I'm doing what I'm on this earth to do
Em D C
I don't think on why I'm here where it hurts
G E D C
I'm just lucky to have the work
Em D C
And every night I dream I'm drowning in the dirt
Em D C
But I thank God for the work
D
And the day will come
C
When I'll find a reason
D C
And somebody proud to love a man like me
D
My back is numb
C
My hands are freezing
D C
What I'm working for is something more than free
Em D C
And I don't think on why I'm here where it hurts
E C
I'm just lucky to have the work
Em D C
Sunday morning I'm too tired to go to church
Em D C
But I thank God for the work
