 {Words to the Song “World of Work” (best guess)}
There’s something out there in the World of Work, that’s Right for You!
There’s something out there in the World of Work, in sight for you.
Something out there, that’s bound to make it,
People that trust, can Reach out and take it.
There’s something out there waiting in the wide wide world.
The World of Work, Reach out and take it. (Chorus)
