Joy of Labour lyrics

Woke up dead, you know I woke up dead

Give me time to get it through my head

They hanged me by the neck, I heard the Devil laugh

I was a nervous wreck, I was the first in line

Do you want to look right in the Devil's face?

You must have seen the ground where we upheld the Law

I was a young man then, I was a young man then

Spending time on the killing floor

Do as you would want to be

Joy of labour, sets you free

Woke up scared, you know I woke up scared

Give me time to show you, how I wound up there

They put me in a cell, I heard the ghost in there

I wasn't feeling well, I was the first in line

Do you want see right through the Devil's eyes?

You must've seen the ground where they all stood before

I was a young man then, I was a young man then

Spending my time on the killing floor

Be more than you seem to be

Joy of labour, sets you free

Woke up dead, you know I woke up dead

I was the only one, that saw the road ahead

They beat me with their fists, I did the Devil's work

And I was on their list, I was the first in line

Do you even know just what the Devil does?

He drives a man 'til he can't take no more

I was a young man then, I was a young man then

Serving my time on the killing floor
