Company Man
Well they tell you how to drive and they tell you what to wear
Tell you how to talk and how to cut your hair
What they can’t tell me is why I’m supposed to care
I’ll never be a company man
Company man, company man
Climbin’ that ladder any way that they can
How they all do it I’ll never understand
I’ll never be a company man
Well if you’re workin’ for the man then you’re bound to get paid
I thought I’d make some money and then I’d have it made
I found out my heart and soul just ain’t worth the trade
I’ll never be a company man
Company man, company man
Climbin’ that ladder any way that they can
How they all do it I’ll never understand
I’ll never be a company man
And they all say
How you gonna know where your next check comes from
Won’t you get tired of macaroni and cheese
What’ya gonna do when you finally meet someone
Thank you for asking
I’ll do as I please
Well I turned in my keys and I turned in my badge
Turned to the few good friends that I had
Gave a big thumbs up as I was packin’ up my bag
I’ll never be a company man
Company man, company man
Climbin’ that ladder any way that they can
How they all do it I’ll never understand
I’ll never be a company man
