Man Against Machine Lyrics & Tabs by Garth Brooks
Man Against Machine
guitar chords lyrics
Papa
They're waiting just outside my door
This is where I make my stand
Because I can't stand it anymore
Papa
They have no heart and soul
But make no doubt about it
They're the ones that' in control
So prepare yourself for a war unlike anything you've ever seen
This is man against machine
(Work, Work, Work)
Day in day out, bust your back and turn it out
Next morning do it all again
Hard job or two so your children won't have to
That's just the ways its always been
Next morning do it all again
Hard job or two so your children won't have to
That's just the ways its always been
But lately I swear that the machines
Are living the American dream
Careful calculations
Details drawn down to design
Is it really for the better or a better bottom line
Don't know me from Adam and it's rotten to the core
It's gonna get reminded man has kicked its ass before
John Henry's 'bout to show on the scene
In this war of man against the machine
(Work, Work, Work)
Up early up hills
Spend your youth to pay the bills
Each generation makes a trade
Top Floor brass tax
Holds the hand that holds the ax
Acts like my dues have not been paid
But pay attention now when I say
Formation isn't happening today
Careful calculations
Details drawn down to design
Is it really for the better or a better part of life
Don't know me from Adam it's rotten to the core
It's gonna get reminded man has kicked its ass before
John Henry's 'bout to blow off some steam
In this war of man against the machine
(Work, Work, Work)
Papa
The power's off the machines are down
In this world of darkness
I can still hear a sound
Papa
That sound tears us apart
Cause I'm a machine myself
But I am one with a working heart
Careful calculations
Details drawn down to design
Is it really for the better or a better bottom line
Don't know me from Adam
Man it's rotten to the core
Stronger now reminded that man's kicked its ass before
The gloves are off no blood loss between
This war of man against the machine
(Work, Work, Work)
