For a little Labor-oriented fun - Johnny Cash, One Piece at a Time

For a more serious Labor Day song, go on over to appalachiablues' thread, Sixteen Tons, Johnny Cash (I Owe My Soul to the Company Store)

That one has an important but somewhat depressing description of "company towns". And the video is, of course, excellent.

But being a Cash fan, I immediately thought of this somewhat more humorous tune. Enjoy!
