B
Working on the site,
From Morning 'till night,

That's livin' alright,
That's livin' alright,
Then a pint with the boys,
In a bar full of noise,
B
That's livin' alright,
That's livin' alright,
Working all day,
D#m
For a pitence of pay,
E C#m
Then blow it all on Saturday night,
B
And you kiss the dames,
F#
But you don't ask their names,
B
That's livin' alright.
B
Working in the sun,
Drinking Schnapps having fun,
F#
That's livin' alright,
That's livin' alright,
Then a night in the town,
Spreadin' it around,

That's livin' alright,
That's livin' alright,
Working all day,

For a packet of pay,
E C#m
And send a little back to the wife,
B
Still you keep a little here,

Just to keep you in beer,
