Lord Have Mercy On The Working Man
Travis Tritt

A            D                 A
All around I hear the sound of money
                  E            A
But I ain't got a nickel to my name
                 D              A
And everywhere I look I see temptation
                    E                   A
She stands on every corner and calls my name


CHORUS
              D
Now won't you tell me if you can
                A
Cause life's so hard to understand
          E
Why's the rich man busy dancin'
          A
While the poor man pays the band
           D               A
Oh they're billing me, for killing me
E                              A
Lord have mercy on the workin' man

A               D              A
Uncle Sam's got his hand in my pockets
                          E               A
And he helps himself each time he needs a dime
                 D               A
Them politicians treat me like a mushroom
                            E              A
Cause they feed me bull and keep me in the blind

(Repeat CHORUS)

Instrumental  A - D - A
A             D               A
Hey St. Peter look down for a minute
                    E            A
And see this little man about to drown
                       D                 A
There's quicksand all around and man I'm in it
                  E                    A
Please help me up Lord cause I'm goin' down

(Repeat CHORUS x2)
