Forty Years
Tom Fogerty
40 years we labor on this chain
Workin' much too hard for what we gain
You & I, we taste the bitter end
Workin' 40 years for another man
Got no name, just a number in the book
Friendly faces hide the royal look
Nothin' down on you, it's such a shame
Workin' 40 years for another man
40 years, 40 long long years
Give the man your blood & sweat & tears
Cash your check on Friday afternoon
Sunday night your money's gone too soon
For your children will it be the same?
Workin' 40 years for another man
