Big boss man
Can’t you hear me when I call?
Big boss man
Can’t you hear me when I call?
Well, you ain’t so big
You’re just tall, that’s all

I got me working, boss man
Working ’round the clock
Want me a drink of water
But you won’t let Joey stop

Big boss man
Can’t you hear me when I call?
Well, you ain’t so big
You just tall, that’s all

Well, I’m gonna get me a boss man
One’s gonna treat me right
Work hard in the day time
Rest easy at night

Big boss man
Can’t you hear me when I call?
Well, you ain’t so big
You re just tall, that’s all
Big boss man
You re just tall, that’s all
