Workin’
Alan Rickertsen
This Song Is 4/4 Time, So Make Sure You Put All Of The Beats Between Each Cord Change.
I Play Using A Finger Picking Style, But A Pick Works Also. My Songs Are Available On
Youtube, Rumble & Fb, On Our “Aquarius Street Concerts” Channels.
Intro
Verse 1
I Pull In The Driveway, ’Bout A Quarter Past Five
Dirt On My Boots And The Radio On High
Neighbors Still Sleepin’, With The Blinds All Drawn
I’m Grindin’ Out A Living, Just To Keep These Lights On
I Ain’t Got Time For Excuses Or Any Of Your Lies
If You Ain’t Out There Hustlin’, We Ain’t Seein’ Eye To Eye
Verse 2
I Don’t Care About Your Color Or Even Where You’re From
I Care That You’re Legal And You Holdin’ Down A Job
If You’re Out There Workin’ And Pullin’ Your Weight
You’re All Right In My Book, You’re Earnin’ Your Place
But Not If You’re Just Sittin’, With Your Hand Held Out
Expectin’ Me To Feed Ya, While You Sittin’ On Your Ass
Chorus
I Like People Who Work, I Don’t Like Those That Don’t
If You’re Punchin’ That Clock Or You’re Hustlin’ Your Own
You’re All Right In My Book And You’re Welcome In My Home
But If You’re Just Waitin’, On Another Free Ride
Don’t Bother Knockin’, Cause I Just Ain’t Got The Time
Bridge
Ain’t About The Money, It Ain’t About The Fame
It’s About Showin’ Up, When The Hard Times Came
You Can Be Broke As Dirt And Still Hold Your Head High
Just Don’t Expect Me To Carry Ya, While You Don’t Even Try
Chorus
I Like People Who Work, I Don’t Like Those That Don’t
If You’re Punchin’ That Clock Or You’re Hustlin’ Your Own
You’re All Right In My Book And You’re Welcome In My Home
But If You’re Just Waitin’, On Another Free Ride
Don’t Bother Knockin’, Please Just Go And Hide
Outro
I Like People Who Work.
And I Can’t Like Those That Won’t.
