Working Man Lyrics

Kurt Nilsen Working Man

You see I need to get out of this place
As you see I can’t get no more space
There is nothing that I’d rather do
Than spend all my time with you

Well I’ve been working seven days a week
Coming home late then going to sleep
Soon as I close my eyes and slip away
It's up on and off again

But see I do it for the both of us
I saw that you were trying too
Oh look there’s that open space where we
Been waiting for so long
But somehow
It just feels so wrong

So I’ll go back to what I know best
Hard time working at the factory here
Shoveling my way through all these days
Until I see you again
Ohh

You see I can’t get to where I want to go
Blinded by the hours when I step in
Hoping that the pay is better than
The last I got
Everyday’s a brand new start

You see I do it for the both of us
I saw that you were trying too
Oh look there’s that open space where we
Been waiting for so long
But somehow
It just feels so wrong

This is my life I know it well
I’ll be sitting stuck till the day I die
Somehow I’ll always smile because
I know that you are on my side

But see I do it for the both of us
I saw that you were trying too
Oh look there’s that open space where we
Been wanting for so long
But somehow
It just feels so wrong
