martin carthy - work life out to keep life in lyrics
[verse]
o the working man as you can see
that is what he was born to be
married to the working wife
that is what she’ll be all her life
never lived beyond their means
nor sought assistance from their friends
yet day and night, through thick and thin
they work life out just to keep life in
[chorus]
no matter friends whate’er befall
the poor folk they must work or fall
through frost and snow, through sleet and wind
they work life out just to keep life in
[verse]
do you see the women who make the gowns
for those in other parts of town
it’s a picture sorrowful to see
and i’m sure with me you will agree
mеagre is her daily pay
to feed and clad a family with
she’s ovеrworked, she’s tired and thin
she works life out just to keep life in
[chorus]
no matter friends whate’er befall
the poor folk they must work or fall
through frost and snow, through sleet and wind
they work life out just to keep life in
[verse]
o mischief mind, where do you roam
when reason called you weren’t at home
if you take cheese from off the rat
is he then free to hunt the cat?
if free from union’s free from dues
are you free from choice, or free to choose
or free as any birds blown by the wind
to work life out just to keep life in
[chorus]
no matter friends whate’er befall
the poor folk they must work or fall
through frost and snow, through sleet and wind
they work life out just to keep life in
