Songs for Labor Day

Songs about work or leisure are appropriate tie-ins to Labor Day. "Working For a Living" by Huey Lewis and the News and "Money For Nothing" by Dire Straits are fun songs about work. Labor Day also centers around the back to school period for kids. It's an unofficial but obvious time marker that signals the end of summer vacation. It's still a period of optimism since a new school year means meeting new friends and buying new clothes.
