Testo Workingman's Hands
Testo Workingman's Hands
He can knock down the wall
Build it up strong
Set the flagstones in a path
With a nail and a hammer
Barrow and saw
See about the hole in the roof
And the gathered all breathe A sigh of relief
At completion of a well-laid plan
It's wearing the day long
And breaking the skin
In the palms of the workingman's hands
Let the tool do the work
Pull and don't push
Drag that wagon over the hill
Measure twice and cut once, son
Clear the felled brush
Edge around the gardens and walks
On a shiny John Deere
Will he reappear With a power drill and a paintbrush
And a chip on his shoulder
As wide as a barn
And as hard as the workingman's hands
Now your Uncle John walked
A mile to school
In a storm and it was uphill both ways
Oh, you save your money for a hole in the ground
A black car and a long wall of roses
And the gathered all breathe
A sigh of relief
At completion of a well-laid plan
It's wearing the day long
And breaking the skin
In the palms of the workingman's hands
It's wearing the day long
And breaking the skin
In the palms of the workingman's hands
Now the old iron gate
Could use some fresh paint
Build it up strong
Set the flagstones in a path
With a nail and a hammer
Barrow and saw
See about the hole in the roof
And the gathered all breathe A sigh of relief
At completion of a well-laid plan
It's wearing the day long
And breaking the skin
In the palms of the workingman's hands
Let the tool do the work
Pull and don't push
Drag that wagon over the hill
Measure twice and cut once, son
Clear the felled brush
Edge around the gardens and walks
On a shiny John Deere
Will he reappear With a power drill and a paintbrush
And a chip on his shoulder
As wide as a barn
And as hard as the workingman's hands
Now your Uncle John walked
A mile to school
In a storm and it was uphill both ways
Oh, you save your money for a hole in the ground
A black car and a long wall of roses
And the gathered all breathe
A sigh of relief
At completion of a well-laid plan
It's wearing the day long
And breaking the skin
In the palms of the workingman's hands
It's wearing the day long
And breaking the skin
In the palms of the workingman's hands
Now the old iron gate
Could use some fresh paint
