Worldwide Working Man

Holes in shoes and debtors blues Lost it all no more to lose Spiral down a mind confused He walks these streets alone One sock on and one sock gone With empty eyes he wonders on Sensing that it won't be long That he'll walk these streets alone He's down and out in England Down and out in Wales Down and out in Scotland As this ailing nation fails Pushed around in Ireland Left standing cap in hand He's just your worldwide working man Ye'h he's your worldwide working man Good times gone it wont be long Till the wolf comes howling in Bankers count their bonuses Cos bankers always win Politicians turn blind eyes Whist holding out a hand Rise up brothers sisters make a stand He's down and out in Paris Down and out in Rome Down and out in Berlin Feeling lost and all alone Fell to ground in Iceland Doing what he can He's just your worldwide working man Ye'h he's the worldwide working man Out of work and out of luck Just cant cope he's giving up Mouths to feed bills to pay Guess the man will have his way Victims of financial fall out Hold your tongues don't you dare shout He'd sell his soul but he's not buying So on his knees you'll hear him cry He's down and out in New York In the motor city to Broke and tired in Georgia Singing poor mans blues Lost all hope in New Orleans Guess you'd understand He's just the worldwide working man Ye'h he's the worldwide working man Walking streets of Canada Streets of Russia to Germany and Italy India China through The North and South Americas Europe Asia on Africa Antarctica Australia he's done He's down and out and pushed around Just doing what he can He's just the worldwide working man He's the worldwide working man So rise up brothers sisters make a stand
