[00:00.00]Lord Have Mercy on the Working Man - Travis Tritt
[00:24.27]All around I hear the sound of money
[00:31.20]But I ain't got a nickel to my name
[00:39.08]And everywhere I look I see temptation
[00:46.17]She stands on every corner and calls my name
[00:53.21]Won't you tell me if you can
[00:56.92]Cause life's so hard to understand
[01:00.78]Why's the rich man busy dancing
[01:04.57]While the poor man pays the band
[01:08.20]Oh they're billing me for killing me
[01:16.86]Lord have mercy on the working man
[01:24.44]Uncle Sam's got his hands in my pockets
[01:31.35]And he helps himself each time he needs a dime
[01:39.04]Them politicians treat me like a mushroom
[01:46.38]Cause they feed me bull and keep me in the blind
[01:53.52]Won't you tell me if you can
[01:57.29]Cause life's so hard to understand
[02:01.19]Why's the rich man busy dancing
[02:04.93]While the poor man pays the band
[02:08.56]Oh they're billing me for killing me
[02:17.23]Lord have mercy on the working man
[02:55.06]Hey St Peter look down for a minute
[03:02.17]And see this little man about to drown
[03:09.71]There's quicksand all around and man I'm in it
[03:17.28]Please help me up Lord cause I'm going down
[03:24.25]Won't you tell me if you can
[03:27.90]Cause life's so hard to understand
[03:31.81]Why's the rich man busy dancing
[03:35.62]While the poor man pays the band
[03:39.23]Oh they're billing me for killing me
[03:47.84]Lord have mercy on the working man
[03:54.43]Won't you tell me if you can
[03:57.92]Cause life's so hard to understand
[04:01.62]Why's the fat man busy dancing
[04:05.39]While the thin man pays the band
[04:09.11]Oh they're billing me for killing me
[04:17.29]Lord have mercy on the working man
[04:24.56]Please Lord have mercy on the working man
[04:32.05]Please Lord have mercy on the working man
