I'm a hard workin' man I wear a steel hard hat
I can ride, rope, hammer and paint do things with my hands that most men cain't
I cain't get ahead no matter how hard I try i'm gettin' really good at barely gettin' by
Got everything I own by the sweat of my brow
From my 4-wheel drive to my cowboy boots, I owe it all to my blue collar roots
Feels like i'm workin' overtime on a runnaway train I got ta bust loose from this ball and chain
I'm a hard, hard workin' man
I got it all on the line for a piece of the promise land
And i'm burnin' my candle at both ends
'bout the only way to keep the fire burnin' is to outrun the wind
Come friday night I like to party hard
I carry on with the cadillac cuties spend my whole weeks pay on some weekend beauty
And come monday mornin' i'm the first to arrive
I ain't nothin' but business 'yall from 9 to 5
