[Intro]
A G D A G D
[Verse 1]
AWell, I'm just a Workin' Man's Dollar G
DIn the pocket of his old blue jeans
AI ain't like my Wall Street brotherG
DHe's in a bank so shiny and clean
AWell, I'm faded and I'm wrinkled G
DTattered and stained with sweat
[Bridge 1]
BAut I'm the 1st one called when Uncle SaGm Needs a handD with the
National Debt A G D
[Verse 2]
AI've been wages for the farm haGnd
DFor drivin' an old John Deere
AI've been laid on a bar in a tavernG
DTo buy a workin' man an ice-cold beer
AI've been tipped to a truck-stop waitressG
DTaped where I was torn
[Bridge 2]
And in tAhe hand of a child I waGs laid on a plate
In a churDch on Sunday morn A A A A A
[Chorus]
GThey say I'm the root of all evil
ID bring lust, power and greed
BCut this Workin' Man's Dollar onlyG buys the things
A workin' man really needsA G D A G D
[Verse 3]
AWell, they say I'm worth about fifty-centsG
IDn this modern inflated age
ABut don't tell that to the young Gman slavin'
DTo make it on a minimum wage
AOr that single workin' motherG
SDhe's been scapin' to make ends meet
[Bridge 3]
To make a Ahouse a home
Keep foGod on the table
And sDhoes on her baby's feet A G D
Well, I kAnow my days are numbered G
I'm gettin' thDreadbare and wearin' thin
And they'llA replace me with another G
But I'd doD it all again
Cuz I've seen Athis great big country G
Passed from hanDd to callused hand
And I've gAot to say that I'm mightyG proud
That I belong Dto a workin' man A A A A A
[Chorus]
GThey say I'm the root of all evil
I bring Dlust, power and greed
But this WorkiCn' Man's Dollar only Gbuys the things
A workin' man really needs
[Outro]
