I've been working for the man And I can't even save a dime I've been working for the man And I can't even save a dime He just keeps on getting' richer And he's got me workin' overtime Well now I just can't seem to make it No matter how I try Every time I think about it I just hang my head and cry I got no one to turn to Oh it aught to be a crime Because the man keeps gettin' richer And he's got me workin' overtime Well It's just a dead end street I ain't getting' anywhere Every time I look around me Ain't nobody seem to care The man keeps getting' his But I still ain't been getting' mine He keeps on gettin' richer And he got me working overtime Workin' overtime! --- .
