Forty Hour Week (For a Livin') Lyric

AlabamaMore lyric by Alabama
FOR THE RECORD: 41 NUMBER ONE HITSDownload MIDI polyphonic ringtones of Alabama





There are people in this country who work hard every day
Not for fame or
fortune do they strive
But the fruits of their labor are worth more than
their pay
And it's time a few of them were recognized

Hello Detroit
auto workers, let me thank you for your time
You work a forty hour week for
a livin', just to send it on down the line
Hello Pittsburgh steel mill
workers, let me thank you for your time
You work a forty hour week for a
livin', just to send it on down the line

This is for the one who swings
the hammer, driving home the nail
Or the one behind the counter, ringing up
the sale
Or the one who fights the fires, the one who brings the mail

For everyone who works behind the scenes

You can see them every
morning in the factories and the fields
In the city streets and the quiet
country towns
Working together like spokes inside a wheel
They keep this
country turning around

Hello Kansas wheat field farmer, let me thank you
for your time
You work a forty hour week for a livin', just to send it on
down the line
Hello West Virginia coal miner, let me thank you for your time

You work a forty hour week for a livin', just to send it on down the line


This is for the one who drives the big rig, up and down the road
Or
the one out in the warehouse, bringing in the load
Or the waitress, the
mechanic, the policeman on patrol
For everyone who works behind the scenes


With a spirit you can't replace with no machine
Hello America let me
thank you for your time
