Sean Sullivan - Work Song Lyrics
Searchin' for a gig in the city, workin' on my own kinda sound,Searchin' for a gig in the city, but the scene can sure bring you down,Jazz musicians get paid mighty little, US of A is a riddleBeen workin', and workin', but I still got so awfully far to goLost my brother while just a young boy, felt the blues reach into my soulLost my brother while just a young boy, found the music fillin' the holeJazz musicians get paid mighty little, US of A is a riddleBeen workin', and workin', but I still got so awfully far to goThinkin' back on my education, had my share of old golden ruleThinkin' back on my education, you can't learn to swing in a schoolJazz musicians get paid mighty little, US of A is a riddleBeen workin', and workin', but I still got so awfully far to goCats who pay their dues play with feelin', lucky if they show you the ropesCats who pay their dues play with feelin', you can hear their dreams and their hopesJazz musicians get paid mighty little, US of A is a riddleBeen workin', and workin', but I still got so awfully far to goIt's a long hard roadIt's an uphill climbSuch a heavy loadBetter take your time
