Working Class Man Lyrics by Third World War

Third World War

0

[Verse]
I was trucking down the road in my old Bedford ten-tenner
When the arm of the law said, "Stop you road runner
Get out of that cab and remember your place
You're talking to the Law and it don't like your face"
Got booked for speeding and indecent language, too
You'd think the road police had nothing else to do
I'm just a working class man with a working class tool
Trying to make a working class living that's all

[Verse]
I went rolling down the road to the depot I was working
Where the foreman's big mouth said, "Stop, you've been shirking
Get out of that truck and them company clothes"
I nut him in the face and I broke his long nose
Got sacked for fighting, cards and money on the spot
You'd think five years' service is something but it's not
I'm just a working class man with a working class soul
Trying to make a working class wage packet roll

[Chorus]
Working class man
Working class man
Working class man
Carrying the working class can, can, can, can, can

[Verse]
Got sacked for fighting, cards and money on the spot
You'd think five years' service is something but it's not
I'm just a working class man with a working class soul
Trying to make a working class wage packet roll

[Verse]
I went running down the road to the trucker's faithful union
Where a white collared "John" said, "stop, no communion
Get out of this shed with your complaining views
I ain't stamping your card, you ain't been paying your dues"
Got fined for arrears, I won't ever understand
You'd think a truck union would lend a helping hand
I'm just a working class man with a working class rent
Trying to make a working class family content

[Chorus]
Working class man
Working class man
Working class man
Carrying the working class can, can, can, can, can

[Verse]
Got fined for arrears I won't ever understand
You'd think a truck union would lend a helping hand
I'm just a working class man with a working class rent
Trying to make a working class family content
Trying to make a working class family content
