Im Workin

                    Em
I was born in south Texas
              D
Didn't have a dollar to our name
Em
My poppa left my momma there
D
To pick cotton and cut down sugar 
cane
Em                     D
She had to work like a slave, all 
day
Em
So I might have better
D
Spend my time in them sunshine ray


[Chorus]
Em
I'm workin'
          D
Baby, I'm workin'
               Em
Ooh daddy, I'm workin'
               D
Yes momma, I'm workin'
                 Em
Ooh brother, I'm workin' for you
                   D
Wanna know if it's worth it, or true

            Em
I just want better
                 D
And I'm about to break on through
          Em            D
Baby, I'm workin'


[Verse 2]
                 Em
Might not mean a thang to you
                      D
These places that I'd like to go
                        Em
But the things that I'm looking for
           D
Just ain't around no more
               Em
My uncle was a gambling man
            D
Way down in New Orleans
             Em
There let me run them streets
           D
Baby now I do my thing


[Chorus 2]
           Em
Honey, I'm workin'
              D
And baby, I'm workin'
           Em
Sugar, I'm workin'
            D
Sister, I'm workin'
                 Em
Ooh brother, I'm workin' for you
                   D
Wanna know if it's worth it, it's 
true
            Em
I just want better
                  D
Tell me what else can I do?
