A Job Of Work Lyrics – Tom Paxton

Singer: Tom Paxton
Title: A Job Of Work

(verse)
I hate unemployment and i’ll tell you why
I wanna keep working ‘til the day i die
I like to work, i do it well, and when i can’t feed my family

Lord i feel like hell
(chorus)
Lord, give me a job of work to do
Lord, give me a job of work to do

That’s all i want, that’s all i ask of you
(verse)
The man from the government says it’s fine
To walk on over to the free food line

I said to the government, “to be so fair
I don’t want my friends to see me there.”
(chorus)
Lord, give me a job of work to do

Lord, give me a job of work to do
That’s all i want, that’s all i ask of you
(verse)
I was born and raised in thеse old hills

I never lеft ‘em and i never will
I’m able-bodied, my friends are, too
And all that we want is a job to do
(chorus)

Lord, give me a job of work to do
Lord, give me a job of work to do
That’s all i want, that’s all i ask of you
(verse)

Well, these are the worst times i have seen
I don’t want to seem ungrateful or mean
But a man’s got to raise his family
And i can’t stand to raise ‘em on charity

(chorus)
Lord, give me a job of work to do
Lord, give me a job of work to do
That’s all i want, that’s all i ask of you
