Forty Hour Week (For A Livin') - Alabama[00:00:00]

There are people in this country[00:00:08]

Who work hard every day[00:00:12]

Not for fame or fortune do they strive[00:00:15]

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[00:00:26]

Hello Detroit auto worker [00:00:31]

Let me thank you for your time[00:00:34]

You work a forty hour week for a livin' [00:00:37]

Just to send it on down the line[00:00:42]

Hello Pittsburgh steel mill worker [00:00:45]

Let me thank you for your time[00:00:48]

You work a forty hour week for a livin' [00:00:51]

Just to send it on down the line[00:00:55]

This is for the one who swings the hammer [00:00:59]

Driving home the nail[00:01:03]

For the one behind the counter [00:01:05]

Ringing up the sales[00:01:08]

For the one who fights the fires [00:01:11]

The one who brings the mail[00:01:14]

For everyone who works behind the scenes[00:01:17]

You can see them every morning[00:01:22]

In the factories and the fields[00:01:25]

In the city streets and the quiet country towns[00:01:28]

Working together like spokes inside a wheel[00:01:34]

They keep this country turning around[00:01:39]

Hello Kansas wheat field farmer [00:01:45]

Let me thank you for your time[00:01:48]

You work a forty hour week for a livin' [00:01:51]

Just to send it on down the line[00:01:55]

Hello West Virginia coal miner [00:01:59]

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

You work a forty hour week for a livin' [00:02:05]

Just to send it on down the line[00:02:09]

This is for the one who drives the big rig [00:02:13]

Up and down the road[00:02:16]

For the one out in the warehouse [00:02:19]

Bringing in the load[00:02:22]

For the waitress the mechanic [00:02:24]

The policeman on patrol[00:02:27]

For everyone who works behind the scenes[00:02:30]

With a spirit you can't replace with no machine[00:02:36]

Hello America let me thank you for your time[00:02:44]
