Hear the whistle blowing Another working day Turn the wheels of power Earn the daily pay The blood and sweat of working men Made this country great The Kings and Queens of industry This song we dedicate No matter where you're going Remember where you've been It takes me back To a simple life I sing my song The ballad of the working man The rhythm of the engines Pounding out a song Pulling all together To make this kingdom strong To every man and woman Standing tall and proud We dedicate this song to you Rejoice and shout out loud It's not so complicated Remember where you're from It takes me back To a simple life I sing my song The ballad of the working man Working man Another round of whiskey Another shot of gin The barmaid rings last orders Get the last ones in The place is full of laughter Glasses full of beer It takes me to a simple life That's nearly disappeared No matter where you're going Remember where you've been It takes me back To a simple life I sing my song The ballad of the working man The ballad of the working man The ballad of the working man
