FEELING DOWN, AND FEELING GLUM
NOW YOUR WORKING DAYS ARE DONE,
SO NOW YOU’RE OLDER AND MORE WISE
TRY TO SEE IT THROUGH MY EYES,
I’VE GOT TO GET UP EVERY DAY
RAIN OR SNOW COME WHAT MAY,
I’VE GOT TO MAKE THINGS MOVE ALONG
EVEN WHEN I’M NOT THAT STRONG,
I CAN’T JUST DOWN TOOLS WALK AWAY
AND TAKE AN UNPLANNED HOLIDAY,
WEARY? TIRED? NEED A REST,
BUT I STILL HAVE TO DO MY BEST,
EARN A PENNY, EARN A POUND,
THE WORKING DAY SOON COMES AROUND,
GOSH, THAT MAKES ME FEEL QUITE GLUM
I WISH MY WORKING LIFE WAS DONE.
