Story behind the song
Fred Voss, my uncle the published poet, writes so well about the honor in an honest day's work. But sometimes I miss my love.
Lyrics
Uncle Fred said it’s OK to work hard honest labor for a factory bard So I’ll take another lap around the yard but if I spend another minute in the absence of your face I’m going to blow a gasket have a melt down and take a hammer to this place Fourteen hours and I can’t think straight. working all day without a vision of your face waste another orbit in outer space I often wish that I was miles down the road your hair smells nice a moment in your arms would surely lighten up my load If I had my uncle’s machinery and his brains I’d smash these walls around me poetry melting chains breaking free work makes you free Now where’s my hammer?
