hard workin' man

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 can't

i can'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 four-wheel drive to my cowboy boots

i owe it all to my blue collar roots

i feel like i'm workin' overtime on a runaway train

i've got to bust loose from this ball and chain

i'm a hard

hard workin man

i got it all on the line

for a peace of the promised land

i'm burnin' my candle at both ends

'bout the only way to keep the fire goin'

is to outrun the wind

come friday night

i like to party hard

i carry on with the cadillac cuties

spend my whole week's pay on some weekend beauty

come monday mornin' i'm the first to arrive

i ain't nothin' but business from nine till five

i can't wait to get up in the mornin'

and do it all over again

well i'm a hard livin'

hard workin' man
