Standard (EADGBE)

 I'm good at what I do

And I take great pride

 But I don't make much money

 So I sell eggs and chickens on the side

 And my wife does love me

 But she can't realize

Why I won't go back down south

 And leave the armory behind

 But I lo - ve my job

 I'll shave metal until I die

And until I do, I'll take on

Any extra thing it takes to provide

 And I know it'll kill me

Breathing all those fumes

 But I'd sooner sniff solution

 Than a baker's dozen hothouse blooms

 And my wife does love me

 But she can't realize

Why I won't go back down south

 And leave the armory behind

 But I feel it is important

 What I do upon my lathe

 I pledge to do the detail work

 Until my expiration day

 Until my expiration day

 Until my expiration day

 Until my expiration day
