Well ^GI’ve been working here for fifteen years and I’ve ^Cseen some changes ^Gcome. I’ve s^Geen some Okies called Californians, I’ve s^A7een some poets called b^Dums. I’ve s^Geen people working for safety, there ^Cmust be a reason w^Ghy. Maybe ^Gwe just come to w^Cork h^Gere, ^DWe don’t come to ^Gdie.

I would l^Gike to end up with all of my fingers, I don’t w^Cant my brain to get n^Gumb I would l^Gike to have my ears when retirement nears, I'd like ^A7to hear that applau^Dse come. And I’d l^Gike to see my grand-children, Be able to p^Cick them up when they c^Gry. That’s why ^GI just come to wo^Crk h^Gere, ^DI don’t come to d^Gie.

Cause if it’s al^Cways level on the floor where you’re working and your t^Gelephone is OSHA approved, When you t^Cell me how much you’re spending on safety, pardon ^A7me if I’m not m^Doved. ^GEver since 1970 the l^Caw has been on my s^Gide. That's why w^Ge just come to wo^Crk h^Gere, ^Dwe don’t come to ^Gdie.

Now I^G’ll be the pitcher, and you can be the batter; you k^Cnow that’s just the old ball g^Game. But when the l^Gine starts popping and that load starts dropping, our s^A7ituations not the s^Dame. And ^GI’m not saying that you don’t care, I’m not ^Csaying that you don’t t^Gry. I’m saying: "^Gwe just come to w^Cork ^Ghere, ^DWe don’t come to d^Gie."

Now ^Gyou and I know that the things that aren’t code could be f^Cixed with relative e^Gase. But ^Gwe never did get anything by a^A7sking on our k^Dnees. So n^Gow we’re looking you straight in the eye, shoulder to s^Choulder and side by si^Gde. We’re saying: ^G"we just come to w^Cork ^Ghere, ^Dwe don’t come to d^Gie."
