John for the workin' man
He's always on the road
John for the workin' man
Try to help him load

He's up in the mornin', rolls out of the van
Just another truck stop for the workin' man
Countin' the shirts and countin' the change
It's another working day

John for the workin' man
Breakin' hearts in every port
John for the workin' man
He's all we can afford
