I am a working man I get things done
Work for the Holy Ghost work for the Son
I am a working man oh yes I am
I am a special agent of the Lamb

I’m gonna wear your covering I’m gonna wear your robe
I’m wear your righteous mane everywhere I go
You’re gonna light my candle Son you’re gonna make it shine
You’re gonna lead me to the throne
Brother testify!

I was born in the city child I was born in the north
I was born in the autumn time Lord only knows what for
I was born when leaves turn red born when things are dying
But I was born with a big ole mouth
Brother testify!


Words and Music by Newworldson

Behind the Song:
"Before Newworldson, we were all working musicians getting paid to make people dance and drink. That all changed when the Spirit called us away from our vocation as we knew it and into a life of ministry. Funny thing is, we were still mostly playing for those same people, and this became our most requested song. Same working men, same customers; new boss, new job description." - Joel Parisien (Newworldson)
