Lyrics

It’s hard to be a working class man (x4) // You can walk down the trail and it might be sunny / But the middle class joggers all look at you funny / They know by your clothes you ain’t got much money / It’s hard to be a workin’ class man // The owners and the bosses are sleazy and stuck / It’s easy to see that you’re down on your luck, boy / They’ll use your body, man, they’ll use it up / It’s hard to be a workin’ class man // Chorus // When I’m around women, I feel like a dick / I try not to go there, but I can’t quit / I’m scared and I’m lonesome and I need a fix / It’s hard to be a workin’ class man // Chorus // On Monday mornin’ there ain’t no hope / By Wednesday mid-day I can’t cope / By Friday I’m at the end of my rope / It’s hard to be a workin’ class man // But I’ve got a plan to end this war / That don’t involve suicide anymore / I’m gonna fight for justice like a troubadour / It’s GOOD to be a workin’ class man // It’s good to be a working class man (x4) // Oh, but it’s hard to be a working class man / It’s hard to be a workin’ class man / Ain’t it hard to be a workin’ class man / It’s hard to be a workin’ class man
