Workin' Man (Nowhere to Go)

2 views

Lyrics

Sittin' alone in the dark
 Wasting my time in the park
 'Cause I got
 Nowhere to go
 Had me a job til the market fell out
 Tried hard to borrow and there was no help
 Now I got nowhere to go
 I need a job for these two hands
 I'm a workin' man with nowhere to go
 ♪
 One last look in the land
 Auctioneer with his gavel in hand and he said
 It's got to go
 Worked this piece all my life
 Broke my heart then took my wife
 Now I got nothing to show
 Need a job for these two hands
 I'm a workin' man with nowhere to go
 Wandered aimless in the city
 With my dirt workboots and my old straw hat in hand
 Singin' a song by woodie guthrie
 This land is your land
 It ain't my land
 I'm a workin' man
 With nowhere to go
 ♪
 I was born to the sunrise
 Breaking back all day
 Now I've got
 Something to say
 I am broke but not broken
 I am not alone cause there's a lot of folks with nowhere to go
 Are they ever gonna understand
 You can't leave a workin' man with nowhere to go
 Are they ever gonna understand
 You can't leave a workin' man with nowhere to go
 ♪
 Nowhere to go
 ♪
 Nowhere to go
 ♪
 Nowhere to go
