Hard Work Songtext
von Cousin Joe

Me and hard work fell out
Fifty long years ago
Yes, me and hard work fell out
Fifty long years ago
Hard work don′t talk to me
And I don't talk to hard work no more

I wouldn′t work on a ship
If it was running down the last river
Stopping at Butter Station
Putting on Aunt Jemima's hotcakes


Lord, me and hard work fell out
Fifty long years ago
Yeah, work don't talk to me
And I don′t talk to hard work no more

My mother died going to work
My father died coming from work
My brother died at work
And I ain′t fixing to mess with it

Lord, me and hard work fell out
Fifty long years ago
I don't talk to hard work
Hard work don′t talk to me no more
