Days of our lives so short,
So many problems we have to sort,
Tears fall from our face,
Trying to move up in life,
But we stay in the same place,
Trying our best to make ends meet,
Working 9 hours a day on our feet,
Walking 5 miles in the cold,
Until now the working man`s story,
Went untold,
So hang in there that's what I say,
Because every man will have his day,
So hang in there hold on tight,
For you will be in my prayers tonight,
So here is one for the person who needed there job there car broke down so they ran,
Here is one for the working man.
