Patty Loveless - Workin' Man's Hands lyrics

(Pierce/Christy/Marshall)

I love the hands of the workin' man

Workin' all day in the sun

Every morning there's a mountain to be moved

By the end of the day it's done

I love the hands of my workin' man

Touching me tenderly

I can feel the heart of my workin' man

When his hands are holdin' me

Workin' man's hands

Gentle as moonlight

Workin' man's hands

Strong as steel

He must of been thinking 'bout me

When the Lord made my workin' man's hands

Daddy always wanted the best for me

Wanted me to have more than he had

He dreamed of riches and finer things

But I'd rather have a workin' man

Like my dad

Workin' man's hands

Gentle as moonlight

Workin' man's hands

Strong as steel

He must of been thinking 'bout me

When the Lord made my workin' man's hands

Life can be hard in this world of ours

But it's easier when someone cares

So I'll take the hand of my workin' man

He's the answer to this workin' girls prayers

Workin' man's hands

Gentle as moonlight

Workin' man's hands

Strong as steel

He must of been thinking 'bout me

When the Lord made my workin' man's hands
