Blacky & the Rodeo Kings
Patience of a Working Man
(Willie P. Bennett)


last ones at the party
no place left to go
you sit and watch the seaside
I'll try to get some dough
you know I don't need no reason to understand
I got all the patience of a working man

well I've never been stranded
and I don't need dough
I got troubles of my own
that you don't need to know
hey yeah yeah
working man

I got troubles
like the shoes on my feet
my woman's waiting up
she gives me the dickens
when I come home late
man that's got to stop
no I don't need no reason to understand
I got all the patience of a working man

well I've never been stranded
and I don't need dough
I got troubles of my own
that you don't need to know
hey yeah yeah working man
I said hey yeah yeah working man

I'm the first to smile
last to offend
I got a heart like an arrow
and it just won't bend
well I aim to push
I aim to shove
you got something, something
something to say
keep it to yourself

cause I've never been stranded
and I don't need dough
I got troubles of my own
that you don't need to know

hey yeah yeah working man
