Subject: Lyr Add: Working Girl Blues (Hazel Dickens) From: Joe Offer Date: 05 Jul 17 - 04:39 AM WORKING GIRL BLUES (Hazel Dickens) Hey I got the early Monday morning working blues I put on my raggy, worn-out working shoes Well the weekend was too short, but I can't choose When the Lord made the working girl, he made the blues Well I'm tired of working my life away And givin' somebody else all of my pay While they get rich on the profits that I lose And leaving me here with the working girl blues I dee oh lay eee, Working Girl Blues! And I can't even afford a new pair of shoes While they can live in any old penthouse they choose And all I've got is the working girl blues My boss said a raise is due 'most any day But I wonder will my hair be all turned gray Before he turns that dollar loose and I get my due And lose a little bit of these working girl blues I said I'm tired of working my life way And givin' somebody else all of my pay While they get rich on the profits that I lose And leaving me here with the working girl blues I dee oh lay eee Working Girl Blues! And I can't even afford a new pair of shoes While they can live in any old penthouse they choose And all I've got is the working girl blues My transcription from this Hazel Dickens recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7QohUTS6AM |
