Y.M. Barnwell, 1981
We bring more than a paycheck to our loved ones and fam’lies.
We bring more than a paycheck to our loved ones and fam’lies. (x4)
I wanted more pay.
But what I’ve got today
is more than I bargained for
when I walked through your door.
I bring home
asbestosis,
silicosis,
brown lung,
black lung disease.
And radiation hits the children before they’ve even been conceived.
We bring more than a paycheck to our loved ones and family.
We bring more than a paycheck to our loved ones and family. (x2)
Well now, workers lend an ear.
‘cause it’s important that you know.
With every job there is the fear
that disease will take its toll.
If not disease, then injury may befall your lot.
If not injury, then stress is going to tie you up in knots. (so we bring home)
We bring more than a paycheck to our loved ones and family.
We bring more than a paycheck to our loved ones and family. (x4)
