40 years we labor on this chain

You and I, we taste the bitter end
G D7 GWorkin' 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
CHORUS

Sunday night your money's gone too soon
G D7 EmFor your children, will it be the same?
G D7 GWorkin' 40 years for another man
