Honestly this brought a tear to my eye. Love the song. I have worked many manual labor jobs. Landscaping, farmhand, carpenter, in the automotive field, roofing, motorcycles, butcher shop. Etc. right now it's a little tight, listed to this and broke. Thank you for this song, Love from the USA.

Other side of the world contemplating my future and pondering a return to my beautiful country. This always makes me smile and maybe one day I will find my way back home.
"Jack Parrow's song... Ah, ever since I was about 14, this song has been my tune. It brings back such good memories. Back then, I didn't quite grasp its depth, but even as a child, it made me appreciate the hardworking people - the ones making burgers, the butchers, the petrol attendants. It sounded so homely and comforting. And now, as an adult, it hits differently. It resonates even more.
Love from idaho.concrete for life. 25 years as a concrete BOY.what does not kill you makes you stronger. To all the working class we make the world turn.............YEAH BABBY
This song highlights so well the depth that Jack has as an artist. Tons of respect for this guy and I only found out about him last week. Its good enough that ive taken it upon myself to familiarize myself with afrikaans to take full advantage of this guys talent. Much respect from west coast canada!
Oh God Jack .. If I did not laugh I'd cry. Thanks boet you parted these grey clouds in the UK just for a bit. Awesome song .. Thank God for you guys back home.
jy het my deur n baie rowwe childhood gedra ... someone who had experienced childhood that wasn't present can tell from your first album that a lot of the songs that you have pushes mentally that by yourself is okay... dankie my brah bly poes hard ❤
I honestly think this is the best song ever of all time ever ! It brings a tear to my eye and makes me smile too ! Thank you Jack parrow whoever ya are lol love from Scotland xx
I've listened to this song everyday for the last month (new fan). I makes me feel like on holiday. Vorig jaar nog Zuid Afrika gedaan (Jo'burg). Ik wil terug.
This was beautifully shot. I love how the people you two worked with are featured, especially during the chorus. You can feel the love in it. Lekker vid Jack and crew. :)
Love Jack music. Still have my prototype black long bill cap from the first series and my signed poster on my wall. I’ll never sell those and I’ll be wearing it in Denver in a week
This is an ode to you, hate your job but the house needs food You wanna quit, you wanna kill but the rent is due Push on through, hold on tight, fight the fight There's a hand on your throat and it's holding tight 9 to 5, jy try, jy druk, jy hou styf vas but you work for a boss and you hate his guts Jy voel stuck, maar onthou, ek's hier vir jou whether jy numbers punch of jy huise bou Yster klou, days too long, nights too short you just went to sleep, then you're back at work If you're up at night or you're up at dawn Whether you're sweeping streets or you're mowing lawns Whether jy meetings het of jy parties hou whether jy suits aantrek of jy klere vou Whether you're washing cars or washing clothes This is an ode to all the working class heroes Bambe-zela, zela, bambe-zela, oh-oh-oh Bambe-zela, zela, bambe-zela, oh-oh-oh I stand with you as jy luister na jou baas wat skel when you on the highway in the traffic cell Whether you're on the long road when the sun comes up When you down in the dirt trying to get back up You one of us die mense wat die wiel laat draai We're on the ground while you waiting for your paint to dry Die greater vibe fresh cut grass smell with the mechanics that makes your car run well Ons is die land the miser the rougher sea you wanna run man come run with me So if you in the queue for your groceries half your life And you think that pedicures are a waste of time You knock off work and go to the closest bar The only Polo you know is a type of car You're one of us, the light at the end of the road An ode to all the working class heroes Bambe-zela, zela, bambe-zela, oh-oh-oh Bambe-zela, zela, bambe-zela, oh-oh-oh You on the long road trying to get back home (Oh-oh-oh-oh) Or you feel stuck where you are and your all alone (Oh-oh-oh-oh) You tryna run but your feet won’t move (Oh-oh-oh-oh) You tryna break free but you can’t get loose (Oh-oh-oh-oh) You work your fingers to the bone but no recognition (Oh-oh-oh-oh) So kom kry my by die naaste bar, wie's in? (Oh-oh-oh-oh) Bambe-zela, zela, bambe-zela, oh-oh-oh Bambe-zela, zela, bambe-zela, oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh
Ya man, lekkere leid. The rich are rich from our broken backs. Never forget that. Time for justice time for freedom. Free Africa, free the world for everybody.
God Bless you seuna. Parow jy rock stukkend verby . hoop ons sien jou in die ville sooner than later. Hosiaaa!!! uit Aus !!! by the way. issit jou se eie lambo daai? smaak hom sommer stikkend.

I'm South African but live in Ecuador. I show this song to my students all the time. Makes me a bit homesick.
Jack Parow, much love from Sweden. Pay check from pay check but glad to be alive. Your music gives alot of energy and always has. Keep it up ♥️
Finally a song that isn't a song about Jack Parow
Paul Kromz hahaha
It's an ode to the man who became Jack Parow :)
you obviously missed a few
and those about him isnt really about him !
towelboy101 true
It could've been better if he said it 30 times or more...

I've worked with Jack Parow before, and I can say I have a special kind of respect for him. He is very different to the typical celebrity in person
I've listened to this song everyday for the last month (new fan). I makes me feel like on holiday. Vorig jaar nog Zuid Afrika gedaan (Jo'burg). Ik wil terug.

To Jack and us Working Class. Cool Video.
This is an ode to you, hate your job but the house needs food
You wanna quit, you wanna kill but the rent is due
Push on through, hold on tight, fight the fight
There's a hand on your throat and it's holding tight
9 to 5, jy try, jy druk, jy hou styf vas but you work for a boss and you hate his guts
Jy voel stuck, maar onthou, ek's hier vir jou whether jy numbers punch of jy huise bou
Yster klou, days too long, nights too short you just went to sleep, then you're back at work
If you're up at night or you're up at dawn
Whether you're sweeping streets or you're mowing lawns
Whether jy meetings het of jy parties hou whether jy suits aantrek of jy klere vou
Whether you're washing cars or washing clothes
This is an ode to all the working class heroes
Bambe-zela, zela, bambe-zela, oh-oh-oh
Bambe-zela, zela, bambe-zela, oh-oh-oh
I stand with you as jy luister na jou baas wat skel when you on the highway in the traffic cell
Whether you're on the long road when the sun comes up
When you down in the dirt trying to get back up
You one of us die mense wat die wiel laat draai
We're on the ground while you waiting for your paint to dry
Die greater vibe fresh cut grass smell with the mechanics that makes your car run well
Ons is die land the miser the rougher sea you wanna run man come run with me
So if you in the queue for your groceries half your life
And you think that pedicures are a waste of time
You knock off work and go to the closest bar
The only Polo you know is a type of car
You're one of us, the light at the end of the road
An ode to all the working class heroes
Bambe-zela, zela, bambe-zela, oh-oh-oh
Bambe-zela, zela, bambe-zela, oh-oh-oh
You on the long road trying to get back home (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Or you feel stuck where you are and your all alone (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
You tryna run but your feet won’t move (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
You tryna break free but you can’t get loose (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
You work your fingers to the bone but no recognition (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
So kom kry my by die naaste bar,
wie's in? (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Bambe-zela, zela, bambe-zela, oh-oh-oh
Bambe-zela, zela, bambe-zela, oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Thanks!
