(Dolly Parton) Just as sure as I'm born when the morning sun comes up Out on the job working hours long and rough Cause I've got a family and I've got to keep 'em fed Got to keep 'em clothed to keep a roof o'er their heads. And I ain't a gonna do it sittin' in the shade Got to work in sweat and toil for every sin I've made But I've got to bring the bacon home and see the bills're paid And I ain't a gonna do it sittin' in the shade. I go to church on Sunday and offer thanks to God For these hard working hands and what litlle we have got By the sweat of the brow just like the Good Book says I work like the devil to earn my daily bread. Now I ain't a gonna do it sittin' in the shade Got to work in sweat and toil for every sin I've made But I've got to bring the bacon home and see the bills're paid And I ain't a gonna do it sittin' in the shade. --- Instrumental --- Life don't come easy for a hard working man That makes his ivin' with his two calloused hands But I reckon it would be wrong for me to complain But I reckon it's alright for me to dream of better things. I ain't a gonna do it sittin' in the shade Got to work in sweat and toil for every sin I've made But I've got to bring the bacon home and see the bills're paid And I ain't a gonna do it sittin' in the shade. No, I ain't a gonna do it sittin' in the shade... |
