1.   Bruce Berry was a workin' man,
    he used to load that Econoline Van.
    A sparkle was in his eyes, but his life was in his hand.
    Well, late at night when the people were gone,
    he used to pick up my guitar,
    and sing a song in a shaky voice
    that was real as the day was long.  + REFRAIN

2.    Early in the mornin' at the break of day,
    he used to sleep until the afternoon.
    If you never heard him sing,
    I guess you won't too soon.
    'Cause people, let me tell you,
    it sent a chill up and down my spine
    when I picked up the telephone
    and heard that he died out on the mainline. + REFRAIN

3.     Bruce Berry was a workin' man,
    he used to load that Econoline Van.
    But early in the mornin', just about the break of day,
    he used to sleep until the afternoon.  + REFRAIN (3x)...
