breaking new ground

Singer:moakler, steve

shovel on my hands

sweat on my shirt

been workin' for a while boys

on this pile of dirt

tryin' to dig a little deeper

in a hard rock town

no it ain't easy

breakin' new ground

burnin' in the hot sun

soakin' in the rain

gettin' pretty good at

smilin' through the pain

about to the point where

most turn around

no it ain't easy

breakin' new ground

it's a long hard day

but you sleep at night

it's an inch by inch push on down the line

only one way through

just get up and do

it again

and again

and again

and again

and again

it's gonna take time and its gonna take heart

yeah that bedrock baby it don't just fall apart

if you're lookin' for the good stuff

it's a little further down

it sure ain't easy

breakin' new ground

it's a long hard day

but you sleep at night

it's an inch by inch push on down the line

only one way through

just get up and do

it again

and again

and again

and again

and again

if you want it bad enough

no you won't back down

but it ain't easy

breakin' new ground

it ain't easy

breakin' new ground

shovel on my hands

sweat on my shirt

it ain't easy
