A Bm D A [2x]

         A                  Bm
All the labor landed in the sod
          D                    A
Where the digger cried it's my calling, sir
    A        Bm             D                        A
And it is no mistake that I put you in the ground so well
            A                  Bm
And if they pay me well that's great
          D         D        A
It's just gravy I'd do it anyway

[Instrumental]
A Bm D A

        A                  Bm           D                        A
All the labor stood up and shouted I'll wait for you fun lovin' Miniver Cheevy
     A                Bm           D                A
With all your drunken delusions I am a sensational place
       A           Bm                 D                     D           A
Of camaraderie and pleasure won't you stand with me in your garden once more

[Instrumental]
A Bm D A

        A                    Bm
All the labor although it be brick on brick
D                    A
Stitch on stitch and earn to urn
  A               Bm              D                    A
A presence on the lift what this great old nation was built on boy
   A                 Bm
Outlives the package everyday mama
D
mama... [hold]
     A
everyday
