Well, you got the sickle and you got the rake
Fingers gonna bleed and your back's gon' break
You got the shovel and you got the plough
You got forever but you don't got now

Let's go, go - Flat Nail Joe
Everybody knows where the wind will blow
Old friend, why so low?
Gotta stand up now Flat Nail Joe

You got the hammer and you got the glue
Got the heave-ho and the old one-two
Well, you got the nickel and you got the dime
But you got forever but you don't got time

Let's go, go - Flat Nail Joe
Everybody knows where the wind will blow
Old friend, why so low?
Gotta stand up now Flat Nail Joe

Well, you got the timber and you got the steel
A whole bag of hooks and fishing reel
You got the oil for the rusty gate
You got forever but you're always late

Let's go, go - Flat Nail Joe
Everybody knows where the wind will blow
Old friend, why so low?
Gotta stand up now Flat Nail Joe

Let's go, go - Flat Nail Joe
You don't gotta bring your axe and hoe
Old friend, why so low?
Gotta stand up now Flat Nail Joe

Oh oh, why so low?
Gotta stand up now Flat Nail Joe
Oh oh, why so low?
Gotta stand up now Flat Nail Joe

Old friend we gotta go
Everybody knows where the wind will blow
Oh oh, why so low?
Gotta stand up now Flat Nail Joe

Gotta stand up now Flat Nail Joe
You gotta stand up now Flat Nail Joe
Gotta stand up now Flat Nail Joe
Gotta stand up now
