Chris Ledoux ~ Workin' Man's Dollar


Well, i'm just a workin' man's dollar In the pocket of his old blue jeans I ain't like my wall street brother He's in a bank so shiny and clean Well, i'm faded and i'm wrinkled Tattered and stained with sweat But i'm the 1st one called when uncle sam needs a hand with the National debt I've been wages for the farm hand For drivin' an old john deere I've been laid on a bar in a tavern To buy a workin' man an ice-cold beer I've been tipped to a truck-stop waitress Taped where i was torn And in the hand of a child i was laid on a plate In a church on sunday morn Chorus: They say i'm the root of all evil I bring lust, power and greed But this workin' man's dollar only buys the things A workin' man really needs Verse: Well, they say i'm worth about fifty-cents In this modern inflated age But don't tell that to the young man slavin' To make it on a minimum wage Or that single workin' mother She's been scapin' to make ends meet To make a house a home Keep food on the table And shoes on her baby's feet Well, i know my days are numbered I'm gettin' threadbare and wearin' thin And they'll replace me with another But i'd do it all again Cuz i've seen this great big country Passed from hand to callused hand And i've got to say that i'm mighty proud That i belong to a workin' man Repeat chorus more free lyrics

Well, i'm just a workin' man's dollar
In the pocket of his old blue jeans
I ain't like my wall street brother
He's in a bank so shiny and clean
Well, i'm faded and i'm wrinkled
Tattered and stained with sweat

But i'm the 1st one called when uncle sam needs a hand with the
National debt
I've been wages for the farm hand
For drivin' an old john deere
I've been laid on a bar in a tavern
To buy a workin' man an ice-cold beer
I've been tipped to a truck-stop waitress
Taped where i was torn
And in the hand of a child i was laid on a plate
In a church on sunday morn

Chorus:

They say i'm the root of all evil
I bring lust, power and greed
But this workin' man's dollar only buys the things
A workin' man really needs

Verse:

Well, they say i'm worth about fifty-cents
In this modern inflated age
But don't tell that to the young man slavin'
To make it on a minimum wage
Or that single workin' mother
She's been scapin' to make ends meet
To make a house a home
Keep food on the table
And shoes on her baby's feet
Well, i know my days are numbered
I'm gettin' threadbare and wearin' thin
And they'll replace me with another
But i'd do it all again
Cuz i've seen this great big country
Passed from hand to callused hand
And i've got to say that i'm mighty proud
That i belong to a workin' man

Repeat chorus

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
