I Hate Work
 C   Fthrough out whole song 
Well I climbed that hill every single day
I'm piling up them trees until my hands are worn away
It's a job and its got good pay
But I'll be damned if I'll be doing this even one more day
Well I've had every job on this big blue earth
I flow from job to job I try to get me some work
Work until my back hurts and then I get paid
But that's not how I want to spend the rest of my days
I've been a paper carrier but I got fired
Houses complaining they weren't getting their flyers
I've been the checkin guy at a fancy hotel
Well kissing people's ass well there ain't no worse hell
Well I fought fires in the BC woods
The smoke's so goddamn thick I didn't think that I could
And I brought you pizza right to your door
And if you didn't tip me then I called you a whore
I picked fruit in Australian heat
I'd tell you about bananas but I block that memory
You might think I'm lazy and you might think I'm wrong 
But if it wasn't this way I couldn't sing you this song
Well I've had every job on this big blue earth
I flow from job to job I try to get me some work
Work until my back hurts and then I get paid
But that's not how I want to spend the rest of my days
I hate work

I Hate Work

C F

through out whole song

Well I climbed that hill every single day

I'm piling up them trees until my hands are worn away

It's a job and its got good pay

But I'll be damned if I'll be doing this even one more day

Well I've had every job on this big blue earth

I flow from job to job I try to get me some work

Work until my back hurts and then I get paid

But that's not how I want to spend the rest of my days

I've been a paper carrier but I got fired

Houses complaining they weren't getting their flyers

I've been the checkin guy at a fancy hotel

Well kissing people's ass well there ain't no worse hell

Well I fought fires in the BC woods

The smoke's so goddamn thick I didn't think that I could

And I brought you pizza right to your door

And if you didn't tip me then I called you a whore

I picked fruit in Australian heat

I'd tell you about bananas but I block that memory

You might think I'm lazy and you might think I'm wrong

But if it wasn't this way I couldn't sing you this song

Well I've had every job on this big blue earth

I flow from job to job I try to get me some work

Work until my back hurts and then I get paid

But that's not how I want to spend the rest of my days
