Working Man's Son Lyrics


Don Williams Working Man's Son


If all I get is what I've got
If the good Lord says you've had your shot
Once I got past my state of shock
I'd smile and tell him thanks a lot

If all I do is what I've done
Put my last notch on my gun
Well I'd look back at how far I've come
And I'd say not bad for a workin' man's son

I've had my fun I've made some friends
I've loved and lost and loved again
Been down that less traveled road
Just to see how far it goes
Spoke my mind, I've been myself
Tried not to hurt nobody else
But if I did I hope they'll forgive

I've wasted time I've blown some cash
Lost some things I won't get back
A few times there I got off track
But I'm hoping God's OK with that

I've had my fun I've made some friends
I've loved and lost and loved again
Been down that less traveled road
Just to see how far it goes
Spoke my mind I've been myself
Tried not to hurt nobody else
But if I did I hope they'll forgive

I'd like to think I'll still be here
To celebrate a hundred years
With a lit cigar and an Ice cold beer
Laughin' heart and thinkin' clear

But if I'm not I've had my run
Not bad for a workin' man's son
