Working John Working Joe (2004 Digital Remaster) - Jethro Tull[00:00:01]

When I was a young man as all good tales begin[00:00:09]

I was taught to hold out my hand[00:00:13]

And for my pay I worked[00:00:22]

An honest day[00:00:25]

And took what pittance I could win[00:00:26]

Now I'm a workin' John and I'm a workin' Joe[00:00:35]

And I'm doin' what I know[00:00:44]

For God and the economy[00:00:49]

Big brother watches over me[00:00:53]

And the state protects and feeds me[00:00:58]

And my conscience never leaves me[00:01:03]

And I'm loyal to the unions[00:01:07]

Who protect me at all levels[00:01:12]

Now as I grew[00:01:25]

The winds of fortune blew[00:01:27]

And the bank smiled down upon me[00:01:29]

And mortgaged to the hilt I threw[00:01:38]

The breeze of caution's behind me[00:01:42]

Now I'm a workin' John and I'm a workin' Joe[00:01:51]

And I'm good at what I know[00:02:00]

And God and the economy[00:02:05]

Have blessed me with equality[00:02:09]

Now I'm equal to the best of you[00:02:14]

And better than the rest of you[00:02:19]

Who would criticize my success[00:02:23]

In times of national unrest[00:02:27]

Now I own my horseless carriage[00:02:58]

In its central heated garage[00:03:03]

And I commute eighty miles a day[00:03:07]

Up at seven to make it pay[00:03:12]

I direct ten limited companies[00:03:16]

With seemin' consummate expertise[00:03:20]

Two ulcers and a heart disease[00:03:25]

A tremblin' feelin' in both knees[00:03:29]

And I'm a workin' John[00:03:33]

I'm a workin' Joe[00:03:37]

And I'm doin' what I know[00:03:42]

But God and the economy[00:03:46]

Big brother watches over me[00:03:50]

And the state protects and feeds me[00:03:56]

And my conscience never leaves me[00:04:00]

And I'm loyal to the unions[00:04:05]

Who protect me at all levels[00:04:09]

I'm a workin' John yes[00:04:13]

I'm a workin' Joe[00:04:18]

And I'm a workin' John[00:04:22]

Yes I'm a workin' Joe[00:04:26]
