Early in the morning factory whistle blows,
                            G
Man rises from bed and puts on his clothes,
C                                     F       C
Man takes his lunch, walks out in the morning light,
                      G                  F       C
It's the working, the working, just the working life.
                                          F           C
Through the mansions of fear, through the mansions of pain,
                                            G
I see my daddy walking through them factory gates in the rain,
 C                                  F         C
Factory takes his hearing, factory gives him life,
                   G                  F      C
The working, the working, just the working life.

End of the day, factory whistle cries,
                                   G
Men walk through these gates with death in their eyes.
C                                                      F      C
And you just better believe, boy, somebody's gonna get hurt tonight,
                       G                   F     C
It's the working, the working, just the working life.
                              G                  F      C
'Cause it's the working, the working, just the working life.
