Story behind the song
Dave never really like the song much but I thought he did a decent job on the bass jt
Lyrics
Spend your life working for the man You do what it takes, whatever you can You know you've got a few friends there But at the end of the day who really cares Lining those pockets with his craving greed How many times can some people feed The man has got me down today so rise me up to make my stay I recall what was said as we walked thru the room and our spirits picked up when we heard the old tune wondering on singing some song you tried so hard but it came out wrong walking in the wind with your jacket flying back forgotten how to button you lost the knack They pick and choose what they want in you Fall in line or are you one of the few who's going to kick back The man has got me down today so rise me up to make my stay I recall what was said as we walked thru the room and our spirits picked up when we heard the old tune we gracefully stepped out past the head table and picked up the instruments and showed we were able to kick back See what you can be Without the little guy Who lines your pockets and puts your buildings in the sky You can send your own memo You can dig your own ditch you can park the car for me Falling from your niche Well See what you will be Without the little guy Who lines your pockets and puts your buildings in the sky your buildings in the sky.....
