[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
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"
