My work is so hard


Well, not really actually, it's only hard ever so often *laugh* but anyway, I really do like my job a lot! *grin* especially so on days where I feel like I'm reading an encyclopedia for a living. I mean some of the things I read about are really amazing, I would've never thought of the stuff they did! Which is why I'm not in research I guess *laugh*

My grandfather gave me his old Sam Cooke tape that I used to listen to so much when I was a kid. The only problem now is that I can't find my old cassette tape player, and I can't decide if I should get the cd instead, or in this case, the vinyl perhaps *laugh* Here's is my favourite Sam Cooke song, it's such a great song!

I hear something saying

Well, don't you know
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang

All day long they're singing

Well, don't you know
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang

All day long they work so hard
Till the sun is going down
Working on the highways and byways
And wearing, wearing a frown
You hear them moaning their lives away
Then you hear somebody say

That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang

Can't ya hear them singing
Mm, I'm going home one of these days
I'm going home see my woman
Whom I love so dear
But meanwhile I got to work right here

Well, don't you know
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang
That's the sound of the men working on the chain gang

All day long they're singing
Mmm,
my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my work is so hard
Give me water, I'm thirsty
My work is so hard

Here's another one that's really sweet *smile*


Don't know much about history
Don't know much biology
Don't know much about a science book
Don't know much about the French I took

But I do know that I love you
And I know that if you love me too
What a wonderful world this would be

Don't know much about geography
Don't know much trigonometry
Don't know much about algebra
Don't know what a slide rule is for

But I do know that one and one is two
And if this one could be with you
What a wonderful world this would be

Now i don't claim to be an "A" student
But I'm trying to be
So maybe by being an "A" student baby
I can win your love for me

Don't know much about history
Don't know much biology
Don't know much about a science book
Don't know much about the French I took

But I do know that I love you
And I know that if you love me too
What a wonderful world this would be

Sam Cooke | Wonderful World
