Laced  up boots,faded  jeans.
Homemade  sandwich, and half  a jug of  tea.
Average  joe, average pay.
Same  old end, same  old day.
 (Chorus)
 But there's  nothin' wrong with a hard  hat and hammer.
That  kind of glue that sticks  this world together.
Hands  of steel, and cradle  of the promised land...
God  bless the workin' man.
All  week long,  making a livin'.
Life  keeps taking,  he keeps giving
Behind  the scene, below  the grade
Hardly  noticed but part  of everything
 (Chorus)
 But there's nothing  wrong with a hard  hat and a hammer
Kind  of glue that sticks  this world together
Hands  of steel and cradle  of the Promised Land
God  bless the working man
 
He  gives his life then  fades away
Another  young man takes  his place
Average  Joe, average  pay
Same  ol end, same  old' day
 (Chorus)
 But there's nothing  wrong with a hard  hat and a hammer
Kind  of glue that sticks  this world together
Hands  of steel and cradle  of the Promised Land
 No, there's  nothing wrong with a hard hat  and a hammer
Kind  of glue that sticks  this world together
Hands  of steel and cradle  of the Promised Land
God  bless the working man
 (3x) To the next verse
 The working man
 Oh, the working man and woman
