[VERSE 1:]
Though the trinkets of glory have fallen my way
I haven’t got what I had yesterday
I have forgotten what I had to say
It’s one for the man down there__
One for the man down there

[VERSE 2:]
Although it’s not new, it’s been said before
While I’m just sitting, I’ll say it once more
As soon as you sign it, it becomes law
One more for the man down there__
One more for the man down there

[VERSE 3:]
And as I try to look life in the face
Forced to partake in this whole human race
You look for your money, it’s gone, left no trace
It’s gone to the man down there__
It’s gone to the man down there

[BRIDGE:]
The man down there says he’ll take good care of you
By this time next week you’ll hold the sun___
He will remove___ all the pain and misery
One day you’ll look, see you’re gone

[VERSE 4:]
Well, the boss-man is clever, he always will be
Behind it all I’m starting to see
He’s getting rich from the likes of you and me
It’s all for the man down there__
It’s all for the man down there

[OUTRO:] (## fade to end on A ##)
The man down there says he’ll take good care of you
C N.C. A
One day you’ll look, see you’re gone____

[Verse 1]
No need to tell me, I’m down and out
I don’t need no referee to know it’s a clean knock-out

[Verse 2]
No need to tell me, my friends are on the run
Looking for greener pastures further on

And I want to tell you, baby, it’s all been worthwhile
And I wouldn’t change one minute, that’s not my style

[Verse 3]
No need to tell me, the writing’s on the wall
You go your way, I’ll go mine, that’s all

[Instrumental]

And I want to tell you, baby, it’s all been worthwhile
And I wouldn’t change one minute, that’s not my style

[Verse 4]
No need to tell me, the writing’s on the wall
You go your way, I’ll go mine, that’s all
Oh, you go your way, I’ll go mine, that’s all
Oh, you go your way, I’ll go mine, that’s all
