1.   Bruce Berry was a workin' man,

    he used to load that Econoline Van.

    A sparkle was in his eyes, but his life was in his hand.

    Well, late at night when the people were gone,

    he used to pick up my guitar,

    and sing a song in a shaky voice

    that was real as the day was long.  + CHORUS

   D

2.    Early in the mornin' at the break of day,

    he used to sleep until the afternoon.

    If you never heard him sing,

    I guess you won't too soon.

    'Cause people, let me tell you,

    it sent a chill up and down my spine

    when I picked up the telephone

    and heard that he died out on the mainline. + CHORUS

   D

3.     Bruce Berry was a workin' man,

    he used to load that Econoline Van.

    But early in the mornin', just about the break of day,

    he used to sleep until the afternoon.  + CHORUS (3x)...
