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
