Working for the Man Songtext - Lindisfarne

Working for the Man - Lindisfarne

Clements-Hull

There was a whole lot of money, he said I'd soon be earning
there was a whole lot of papers that I didn't understand.
There was a whole lot of talk about keeping some beacon burnin'
and the next thing I knew I was working for the man.

It took a whole lot of shovin' to keep that motor turning
it took a whole lot of breaking my back 'til I could hardly stand
it took a whole lot of keeping that midnight candle burning
that's the lesson you learn when you working for the man.

Chorus:
Working for the man you know exactly where you stand
last in line and working for the man.

I did a whole of thinking how to get them tables turning
I did a whole lot of acting like I'm doing the best I can
I did a whole lot of biting my tongue just to keep on learning
that's the lesson you learn when you working for the man.

Chorus:
Working for the man you know exactly where you stand
last in line and working for that man.

I got a whole lot to show for it since the day I started
I got lines on my faces, I got blisters on my hand
I got debts to the company, but I don't get down hearted
I still got the privilege working for the man
I still got the privilege working for the man.
Working, working, working, working.
