Forty Hour Week - Alabama[00:00:01]

There are people in this country who work hard every day[00:00:08]

Not for fame or fortune do they strive[00:00:14]

But the fruits of their labor are worth more than their pay[00:00:20]

And it's time a few of them were recognized[00:00:26]

Hello Detroit auto workers let me thank you for your time[00:00:31]

You work a forty hour week for a livin' just to send it on down the line[00:00:37]

Hello Pittsburgh steel mill workers let me thank you for your time[00:00:45]

You work a forty hour week for a livin' just to send it on down the line[00:00:51]

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

Or the one behind the counter ringing up the sale[00:01:05]

Or the one who fights the fires the one who brings the mail[00:01:11]

For everyone who works behind the scenes[00:01:16]

You can see them every morning in the factories and the fields[00:01:22]

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 let me thank you for your time[00:01:45]

You work a forty hour week for a livin' just to send it on down the line[00:01:50]

Hello West Virginia coal miner let me thank you for your time[00:01:59]

You work a forty hour week for a livin' just to send it on down the line[00:02:05]

This is for the one who drives the big rig up and down the road[00:02:13]

Or the one out in the warehouse bringing in the load[00:02:18]

Or the waitress the mechanic the policeman on patrol[00:02:24]

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]
