Am
Sometimes I think I'm going crazy
Dm
Staring at the same four walls
C G F
Waiting for the working day to end
Am
Then I get home so wasted, worn out
Dm
I curse at you and tell you
C G F
How I've done the work of ten to fifteen men
F
How I've struggled for my money
F Am
Sweated blood to get us by, yeah
F
Well I'm tired of it honey
F Dm E
Think I'm gonna have to leave here for a while
[Chorus]

Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, And the ways I look at life

And see that somewhere underneath

Well you know I work hard all day long
Dm
Let me kiss you once with meaning
C G F
Just to kill this nagging doubt
F
Well you don't deny I do you proud

And you expect me to be tired
F
You say there's no future in our lives

While I persist I'm putting out the fire

Oo-ee-oo-ee-oo, You've got the heart of a working girl
