Heading for Texas, heading down south
Just looking for a good job, living hand to mouth
I'm an honest man, earned every dime I make
And I've paid in full for my worst mistakes

I can do any job, I'm not afraid
To get my hands dirty, proud of what I made
I can use any tool, drive any stick
Climb any rig, work any shift

I'm a working man
That was the plan
I'm a working man
I'm no better than
I'm a working man
Catch as catch can
I'm a working man
That's what I am

Oh baby, don't you worry bout me
I won't fool around although I may be free
Oh baby, someday I'll send for you
And we can be together at last just us two
Oh baby, don't give up on me
Cause baby we'll make it just wait and see
And maybe, when we get where we're aiming at
We'll look back on this, look back and laugh
I'm a working man
That's the plan
I'm a working man
I'm no better than
I'm a working man
Understand
I'm a working man
