1
All around I hear the sound of money
2
But I ain't got a nickel to my name
3
And everywhere I look I see temptation
4
She stands on every corner and calls my name
5
Chorus:
6
Now won't you tell me if you can
7
Cause life's so hard to understand
8
Why's the rich man busy dancing
9
While the poor man pays the band
10
Oh, they're billing me
11
For killing me
12
Please lord have mercy on the working man
13
Uncle Sam's got his hands in my pockets
14
And he helps himself each time
15
He needs a dime
16
Them politicians treat me like a mushroom
17
Cause they fed me bull
18
And keep me in the blind
19
Chorus:
20
So won't you tell me if you can
21
Cause life's so hard to understand
22
Why's the rich man busy dancing
23
While the poor man pays the band
24
Oh, they're billing me
25
For killing me
26
Yeah, lord have mercy on the working man
27
Hey Saint Peter look down for a minute
28
And see this little man
29
About to drown
30
There's quick sand all around
31
And man I'm in it
32
Please help me up Lord
33
Cause I'm going down
34
Chorus:
35
Now won't you tell me if you can
36
Cause life's so hard to understand

While the poor man pays the band

For killing me

Yeah, now won't you tell me if you can

Cause life's so hard to understand
44
Why's the fat man busy dancing
45
While the thin man pays the band
46
Oh, they're billing me
47
For killing me
48
Please lord have mercy on the working man
49
Please lord have mercy on the working man
50
Please lord have mercy, on the working...man
