Workin´    (RIV 315)  Gary Showmake

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER



Circle Left
* Workin’ on a building, workin’ in a mine
Workin’ on a railroad up and down the line
Left Allemande the corner, Dosado you own
Left Allemande and Weave The Ring
** I’ve got two hands and a back that’s strong
Put ‘em in a rhythm, sing a workin’ man’s song
I’ve been workin’ since the dawn of time
Anybody workin’ is a friend of mine.

FIGURE



Heads Square Thru count 'em 4 hands round
You make a Right Hand Star
The Heads Star Left, roll it one time and then
Same pair and do a Dosado
Swing Thru and then the Boys Trade
Swing the corner lady round and Promenade
I’ve been workin’ since the dawn of time
Anybody workin’ is a friend of mine.

TAG



Anybody workin’ is a friend of mine.

ADDITIONAL LYRICS



* Kiss my woman goodby, I’ll be leavin’ soon.
Workin’ at a square dance to those fiddle tunes.

** Workin’ on a big rig, hands on the wheel
Loadin’ up the trailer with three tons of steel

* Savin’ up for college, or a rainy day.
Raisin’ up the children, keep a workin’ a way.

** Doin’ what I can to keep the wolf from the door
Workin’ like my father and his father before.
