Started working here when I was twenty-one

Thought I could grow with the company

Never took a dime, never raised a fuss

Right is right, even for those of us
C G Dm
Who make a dollar while the man makes ten,

They say hard work pays off in the end

Everything I got I got with my own hands

Never wanted to be no company man

Saw my workload increase and my pay cut

But I bought a house, started a family

Still had some faith in the company

Hard times hit '67 late

Devil must've opened up the floodgates

My wife, she left me for some other guy
F E
In my heart, guess I always knew why
[Chorus 2]

She was never gonna’ understand
