Hey, now you better listen to me, everyone of you
We got a lotta, lotta, lotta, lotta work to do
Forget about your woman and that water can
Today we're workin' for the man
Well, pick up your feet, we've got a deadline to meet
I'm gonna see you make it on time
Don't relax, I want elbows and backs
I wanna see everybody from behind
'Cause you're workin' for the man, workin' for the man
You gotta make him a hand when you're workin' for the man
Oh well, I'm pickin' 'em up and I'm laying 'em down
I believe he's gonna work me into the ground
I pull to the left, I heave to the right
I wanna kill him but it wouldn't be right
'Cause I'm workin' for the man, workin' for the man
Gotta make him a hand when you're workin' for the man
Well, the boss man's daughter sneaks me water
Every time her daddy's down the line
She says meet me tonight, love a me right
And everything is gonna be fine
So I slave all day without much pay
'Cause I'm just abiding my time
'Cause the company and the daughter you see
Their both gonna be all mine
Yeah, I'm gonna be the man, gonna be the man
Gotta make him a hand if I'm gonna be the man
Workin' for the man, workin' for the man
Gonna be the man, gonna be the man
Gotta make him a hand, workin' for the man
