Back To Work - Harold Rome

Written by：Alan Jay Lerner/Burton Lane

Hey here comes Joe now running down the street hey Joe

He must have news the way he moves his feet hey Joe

He's coming from the meeting with the boss hey Joe

I hope they didn't throw him for a loss hey Joe

He must have news about the strike I wonder what it's like

Hey Joe hey Joe hey Joe don't be so slow

Tell us Joe spill it Joe Joe what do you know

What do I know

I ain't heard as good news since Lord knows when

For the strike is over boys

Back to work again

Yeah

The fighting's through now

There's no more fuss

For the strike is over boys

Back to work for us

Yeah

We gave a little and we took a little

It was quite a fight but things came out all right

Shout to the rafters let yourselves go

For the striking all is done let's have fun

The day is won back to work we go

Yeah

Back to work again

Back to work for us

We gave a little and we took a little

It was quite a fight

But things came out all right

Shout to the rafters let yourselves go

For the striking all is done

Let's have fun

The day is won

Back to work Joe

Back to work Joe

Back to work we go
