Work as hard as you can, earn your way
Work as hard as you can, earn your way
Find someone to come home to at the end of the day
Work as hard as you can, earn your way
Work as hard as you can, earn your way

Don't you ever expect to be appreciated
You are not alone, we all have bad days
You are not alone, we all have bad days
When work is not worth the work 
Appreciate your legs and walk away
Appreciate your brain and walk away

Some of us work real hard 
And some of us don't
Some of us are home a lot 
And some of us are working all the time
I say work when you can and when you want 
And everything will be fine.
Don't bring work home with you
Don't let it change your mind
Cause people make money, and money makes them
And when money makes people, they're not your friend.

Work as hard as you can, earn your way
Work as hard as you can, earn your way
Find someone to come home to at the end of the day
Someone who understands your overworked and underpaid
