Phos'phrous chimney burnin'
Mortal man's a' learnin'
Time n' space a' turnin'
Motor's n' men a' churnin'
Fac'trys no place f' me
Boss man, let me be
Boss man, let me be
Wind n' waves a' blowin'
Mountain 'n sky a' showin'
Bee n' flower growin'
Boy n' girl a' glowin'
Fac'trys no place f' me
Boss man, leave me be
Boss man, leave me be
Boss man, leave me be
Mind n' sight a' goin'
Muscle n' bone a' showin"
One thing sure I'm knowin'
Get a fire goin'
Fac'try ain't no place f' me
Boss man, leave me be
Boss man, leave me be
Boss man, leave me be
