lyrics

WORK ALL DAY AND WORK ALL NIGHT
WE WORK DAMN HARD BUT THAT’S ALRIGHT
FIX THE FENCE, SHEAR THE SHEEP
WORK ALL DAY TILL WE SLEEP
BUT WHEN WE STOP AND WHEN WE DROP
THERE’S ONLY ONE THING WE NEED...

chorus
IT’S A PLOUGHMAN’S LUNCH
A PLOUGHMAN’S LUNCH
A PLOUGHMAN’S LUNCH FOR ME!

STEAK AND EGGS, A CHOP OR TWO
A PINT OF MILK, A PINT FOR YOU
A PICKLE HERE AND PICKLE THERE
HAM AND CHEESE EVERYWHERE

chorus

A LOAF OF BREAD A JUG OF BEER
A POUND OF CHEESE WILL BRING THE CHEER
EAT THE CRUMBS AND DO THE DISHES
TIP THE HAT AND THANK THE MISSUS

chorus
