You've been working so hard
No one can tell
Why don't you try taking it easy
You're covered with sweat

And we're hardly there yet
Don't be ashamed of yourself
Just take it slow
It's only me

Lay your head back in your old easy-chair
The day is done
The harder you try to keep up with us
You lose another breath
Take it slow
It's only me

Your dogs are tired
So let them alone
They're almost done with their mushing
You're working so hard
No one can tell
You've got so much to be proud of

Lay your head back in your old easy-chair
The day is done
The harder you try to keep up with us
You lose a breath
Lay your head back in your old easy-chair
The day is done
The harder you try to keep up with us
You lose another breath
