Sammy Kershaw - National Working Woman's Holiday Lyrics






They oughta' run your picture in a magazine
'Cause you're the hardest working woman I've ever seen
If we weren't sinkin' in a river of debt
I'd say, "Quit that job and let 'em do it theirself"
I know we're depending on every dime
But I'm tired of you working that overtime

I'm gonna tell somebody
There ought to be a law against working that way
Tell 'em you're taking off this Friday
For the National Working Woman's Holiday

Honey I can tell you're feeling the strain
You deserve a break from that ball and chain
If the union won't say it, then it's up to me
They're just taking advantage of your loyalty
Everybody likes a little time and a half
But we both know you're worth more than that

I'm gonna tell somebody
There ought to be a law against working that way
Tell 'em you're taking off this Friday
For the National Working Woman's Holiday

I'll call in sick
And I'll be telling the truth
'Cause I'm sick and tired
Of how they're treating you

I'm gonna tell somebody
There ought to be a law against working that way
Tell 'em you're taking off this Friday
For the National Working Woman's Holiday

I'm gonna tell somebody
There ought to be a law against working that way
Tell 'em you're taking off this Friday
For the National Working Woman's Holiday

    R.... S....

    Robbie Stewart this is just as bad if not worse

  4. T.... C....

    Always loved Sammy's music. Artists like him are a rare breed. Too bad there isn't any good country like this around today. I want to dedicate this to all the women (whether you work a job or are a house wife).

  5. M.... A....

    I love that coat he wears for this song!! 😍

  6. P.... R....

    he is awesome!

  7. M.... B....

    He's right there ought to be a holiday for the working women holiday

  8. M.... B....

    This song is for all the women that works very hard for every thing

  9. D.... S....

    Saw him in 1998' in Barnstable County, Ma. And, he couldn't be any nicer..it, was a drizzling rain. Piss poor weather. And, about 80 people came out to see him. As, his showed came to a close. And
    As he walking from the stage. Fans started to get excited to be so close, and maybe even apic! His
    Road MGR. Put his arm across his chest as he was climbing to the bottom/fans..he.told everyone no he can't..as he was reminding him to save his voice in this crappy weather...He ( Mr. Kershaw) said if they can
    Stand out in the rain to see me, than I can and take pic's. And, proceeded to take care of every fan😊 a true class act!

  10. S.... W....

    Sammy Kershaw is my favorite singer in the classic music besides Alan Jackson George Strait Willie Nelson Reba McEntire Garth Brooks Randy Travis Tracy Byrd and Trace Adkins and Toby Keith a Travis Tritt and Keith Urban

  11. L.... H....

    Dumbest music video but great song

  12. J.... S....

    Well the husband in the video could have helped his wife with the dinner and housework rather than just read a book or the paper! LOL

  13. B.... S....

    My mama would play this over and over and over and now I do lol

  14. R.... 3....

    Sjw's would say this is sexist

  15. W.... C....

    Wendi Garrett Cain

  16. W.... M....

    Like to decade this song to my very best Eloida cause she is the hardest working woman I've have ever seen

  17. A.... K....

    This song always make me smile when I hear it. Especially if I happen to be driving to work.

  18. d.... ....

    When I was growing up in the 70s,we listened even then to music from the 50s and 60s and no one thought that it was too old.
    Now,a singer barely gets 20 years on the charts and they are gone like yesterday's cool breeze.

  19. B.... L....

    This is country music! Reminds me of driving with my old man, where did it all go wrong? Music sucks these days

  20. A.... R....

    I remember this as a kid true country music all I listen to the country today is garbage

  21. E.... S....

    💘 it

  22. E.... S....

    love it

  23. N.... b....

    I’ve met him and he is actually the nicest guy I’ve ever met!

    N.... b....

    Yes he is! I've met him too.

  24. D.... H....

    Agree after 2005 it went downhill

    D.... H....

    Dustin Harlow they committed murder down on music row

    D.... H....

    It went downhill before that.

    D.... H....

    Oh it started going to crap years before that. It was already starting to slowly take on a different tone and sound in the late 90s. I very abruptly one day stopped listening to contemporary country and one day in very late 2013 and haven't listened since. It took me until then to really understand what it had become and basically every song that was being put out there and played were all the same thing. Partying and doing stupid pretty-boy stuff and guys getting every good looking girl in their quarters and having their way with them. Yeah country may have always had songs about drinking and cheating and boys being rowdy but it had all been within the context of real life stories and they all had a story to tell in them and it wasn't mixed with all of this hip-hop and girl-boning stuff that's always existed in the rap world. But it's mostly been about blue collar American living and hard work and family and God,which is a real rarity in country these days.

  25. M.... F....

    Sammy is an amazing musician..still love listening to his music!! :)

  26. P.... W....

    @engagedsam203 I knew somebody would like that jacket. I grew up in the 90's loved the era but even I don't think I would've the balls to wear it. Go Sammy!

  65. R.... K....

    I wish we would get some new great music from Sammy. He was one of the best from the 1990s, along with people like Travis Tritt, Joe Diffie, Alan Jackson, Garth Brooks, etc. He has not had a hit in a long time. I don't know if he has given up on making music or not.

    R.... K....

    He still tours but radio won't play him or others.

  66. s.... a....

    got to love that jacket lol
