The Factory

BUD MCGUIRE

I can't say that he loved his work
But he fed a family of nine
Papa never heard of a union
He logged his scale in time
But he was a lucky man at least he had a job
Down at the factory

40 years cut across his back
Fightin' it tooth and nail
Work was hard enough to make a man
Forget his fear of Hell
He was a thankful man he had a job
Down at the factory

Sometimes through the walls at night
I'd hear him on his knees prayin', "Lord
Please help me through another day
Give me strength and bless this house
This family of mine and thank you, Lord
For my job down at the factory"

It's hard for a man to build a life
On a miller's pay
But like father just like son
At least I could pay my way i'm a lucky man
I've got a job down at the factory

As I put my kids to bed
Wonder what's in store
Ask the Lord for a better way
'Cause they deserve much more
Than to raise their own with just a job
Down at the factory

Sometimes when it's late at night
I get down on my knees prayin, "Lord
Please help me through another day
And give me strength and bless this house
This family of mine and, thank you, Lord
For my job down at the factory"
We got more than some at least I got a job
Down at the factory
