I don't want to work away
Doing just what they all say
Work hard, boy, you'll find
One day you'll have a job like mine
Cause I know for sure
Nobody should be that poor
To say yes, you sink low
Cause you happen to say so, say so, you say so
I don't want to work away
Doing just what they all say
Work hard, boy, you'll find
One day you'll have a job like mine
Be wise, look ahead
Use your eyes, he said
Be straight, think right
But I might die tonight
Ah-ah-ah-ah
I don't want to work away
Doing just what the other people say
Cause I might die tonight
Get a job, do what I say
Don't think the system's gonna let you get away
Don't get a job, do what I say
Don't think the system's gonna let you get away
Don't get a job, do what I say
Don't think the system's gonna let you get away
Another job
Thank you.
