blue collar dollars

cutting hay in a nowhere town

sun up to sundown

making that summertime money

damn it was hot as hell

stacking it bail by bail

come quitting time man i was running

little sweat on my shirt

little sun on my burn

little hard in that work

but it was worth it

cause it put gas in the tank

put a little smoke in that tray

put a little feel good in our crazy

put a little 5th on ice

put a little look in her eye

sure bought a lot of time with my baby

got us out on the edge of town

she'd light me up

i'd lay her down

those nights got hotter

spending those blue collar dollars

that dusty red clay was on my boots and my face

still i showed up everyday

praying for friday

putting that pedal to the floor

picking her up at the door

cashing that check at the store

and we were gone

little sweat on my shirt

little sun on my burn

little hard in that work

but it was worth it
