《Forty Hour Week (For a Livin’)》歌词

[00:00:00] Forty Hour Week (For a Livin') - Done Again (又一次乐队)

[00:00:06] There are people in this country

[00:00:09] Who work hard every day

[00:00:12] Not for fame or fortune do they strive

[00:00:17] But the fruits of their labor

[00:00:20] Are worth more than their pay

[00:00:23] And it's time a few of them were recognized

[00:00:29] Hello Detroit auto workers

[00:00:32] Let me thank you for your time

[00:00:34] You work a forty hour week for a livin'

[00:00:39] Just to send it on down the line

[00:00:43] Hello Pittsburgh steel mill workers

[00:00:46] Let me thank you for your time

[00:00:49] You work a forty hour week for a livin'

[00:00:52] A-just to send it on down the line

[00:00:57] This is for the one who swings the hammer

[00:01:01] Driving home the nail

[00:01:03] Or the one behind the counter ringing up the sale

[00:01:08] Or the one who fights the fires

[00:01:11] The one who brings the mail

[00:01:15] For everyone who works behind the scenes

[00:01:20] You can see them every morning

[00:01:23] In the factories and the fields

[00:01:26] In the city streets and the quiet country towns

[00:01:32] Working together like spokes inside a wheel

[00:01:37] They keep this country turning around

[00:01:43] Hello Kansas wheat field farmer

[00:01:46] Let me thank you for your time

[00:01:48] You work a forty hour week for a livin'

[00:01:52] A-just to send it on down the line

[00:01:57] Hello West Virginia coal miner

[00:02:00] Let me thank you for your time

[00:02:03] You work a forty hour week for a livin'

[00:02:06] Just to send it on down the line

[00:02:11] This is for the one who drives the big rig

[00:02:15] Up and down the road

[00:02:17] Or the one out in the warehouse

[00:02:20] Bringing in the load

[00:02:23] Or the waitress the mechanic

[00:02:26] The policeman on patrol

[00:02:29] For everyone who works behind the scenes

[00:02:34] With a spirit you can't replace with no machine

[00:02:43] Hello America let me thank you for your time
