The old world turns, never stops
Chase that buck until we drop
The job's not bad, it's like childs play
Working in the vineyard, paid by the day

Working in the vineyard, in the Lord's employ
Getting good and mellow on His wine of joy

Bend that back one more time
Stand up straight one more time
Work all day, play all night
Every aching body will feel alright

Working in the vineyard, in the Lord's employ
Getting good and mellow on His wine of joy

The old world turns, never stops
Chase that buck until we drop
The job's not bad, it's like childs play
Working in the vineyard, paid by the day

Working in the vineyard, in the Lord's employ
Getting good and mellow on His wine of joy
