Morning Town Ride \u2013 The Seekers<\/a><\/p>\n

Most times I have had trouble with transport to get to work. One time I got on the wrong train, and jumped off. I hadn\u2019t realized that the train had picked up so much speed. I won\u2019t do that again! Many times I have had car trouble, and sometimes bus trouble. All just to try and make a living. One time I had my car stolen.<\/p>\n

Banana boat song \u2013 Harry Belafonte<\/a><\/p>\n

Here are some of my favorite working songs. I was listening to this one on the radio this week, so here it is. I know what it is like to work all night, and long to go home and sleep. Lately everybody is saying \u201cHappy holidays,\u201d but soon it is back to the old grindstone old chap!<\/p>\n

Oney \u2013 Johnny Cash<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cI see him in my dreams at night, and wake up in the morning feeling tired!\u201d I have been through that many times in the various jobs I have had.<\/p>\n

9 to 5 \u2013 Dolly Parton \u201clive\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

It will drive you crazy if you let it! Many times you do a good job and you don\u2019t get the credit you deserve.<\/p>\n

Six days on the road \u2013 Dave Dudley<\/a><\/p>\n

It is hard to be away from home, but to make a living, that is what you have to do sometimes.<\/p>\n

These hands \u2013 Johnny Cash<\/a><\/p>\n

Now I\u2019m tired and I\u2019m old, and I ain\u2019t got no gold! Hey that\u2019s me! However, I don\u2019t know if God is going to be impressed about how hard I have tried to work. I know Jesus said we must store our treasure in heaven.<\/p>\n

Cotton fields \u2013 Karl\u2019s country Dutchmen<\/a><\/p>\n

I think people all around the world like songs. I think this one is about the slave workers in the old southern states.<\/p>\n

Big city \u2013 Merle Haggard<\/a><\/p>\n

Tired of working, and not enough pay. Does that sound familiar?<\/p>\n

A hundred and sixty acres- Sons of the Pioneers<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cUp with dawn to meet the sun.\u201d I have to get out there before the sun comes up!<\/p>\n

Detroit City \u2013 Tom Jones<\/a><\/p>\n

It is a pity the motor industry has taken a downswing. I wish they could make cars that don\u2019t need repairing. Every car I\u2019ve had recently has cost me more money to fix, than what it cost to buy.<\/p>\n

Streets of Baltimore \u2013 Bobby Bare<\/a><\/p>\n

He comes home from work, and his whole body is sore. I know how he feels!<\/p>\n
