Workin’ Hard, Playin’ Hard Lyrics

Man started out with it in a cave;
They're runnin' home, nobody's safe
Left with a note, all alone;
Only wanted to have a happy home

Now it's my turn to show my stuff;
It's sometimes fun and sometimes rough
I'm workin' hard to earn my way;
Well, lucky me, my work is play

Workin' hard, playin' hard;
Helps me get thru each day and night
Workin' hard, playin' hard;
Makes everything all right

I'm here to sow my wild seed;
I don't want much, just what I need
Workin' hard, playin' hard;
Helps me get thru each day and night
Workin' hard, playin' hard;
Makes everything all right

(solo)

I'm here to sow my wild seed;
I don't want much, just what I need
See Ted Nugent Live
Get tickets as low as $58
Workin' hard, playin' hard;
Helps me get thru each day and night
Workin' hard, playin' hard;
Makes everything all right

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
