[00:00:02] A Job Of Work (LP Version) - Tom Paxton

[00:00:06] I hate unemployment and I'll tell you why

[00:00:08] I want to keep working til the day I die

[00:00:11] I like to workI do it well and when I can't feed my fam'ly

[00:00:17] Lord I feel like hell

[00:00:18] Lordgive me a job of work to do

[00:00:23] Lordgive me a job of work to do

[00:00:28] That's all I wantthat's all I ask of You

[00:00:39] The government manhe says its fine

[00:00:42] To go on down to the free food line

[00:00:45] Nice of the government to be so fair

[00:00:47] But I don't want my friends to see me there

[00:00:51] And all we ask is a job to do

[00:00:56] And all we ask is a job to do

[00:01:01] That's all I wantthat's all I ask of You

[00:01:13] I was born and raised in these old hills

[00:01:16] I never left 'em and I never will

[00:01:18] I'm able-bodied and my friends aretoo

[00:01:21] And all we ask is a job to do

[00:01:24] And all we ask is a job to do

[00:01:30] And all we ask is a job to do

[00:01:35] That's all I wantthat's all I ask of You

[00:02:04] Yesthese are the worst times I have seen

[00:02:07] Don't want to seem ungrateful or mean

[00:02:09] But a mans got to raise his family

[00:02:12] And I can't stand to raise 'em on charity

[00:02:16] And all we ask is a job to do

[00:02:21] And all we ask is a job to do

[00:02:26] That's all I wantthat's all I ask of You
