Lyrics

Sun rises Sun rises over me Filters through the drapes at dawn Daddy taught me Daddy taught me to believe I could be whatever I want I think about him when the days get lonely When I'm a stranger in my own backyard and People tell me I'll amount to nothing They're just snakes in the garden I go to work Every day to be worthy The ground on which I stand I go to work Can't nobody can hurt me This hammer in my hand I go to work Some turn to the bottle Some find peace in a church Whatevеr gets you through the night's all right But in the day I go to work Sun sеtting Sun setting in the evening Dreaming of a day of rest Ain't complaining I ain't looking for a break Just wish it wasn't check to check Sometimes I wonder what my life was meant for Will I be grinding till the day I'm buried I used to dream that I would climb great mountains No time to worry I go to work Every day to be worthy The ground on which I stand I go to work Can't nobody can hurt me This hammer in my hand I go to work Some turn to the bottle Some find peace in the church Whatever gets you through the night's all right But in the day I go to work Run, run, get it all done Don't neglect your daughter or your baby son A man's worth, measured by his purse Never let you rise above the goddamn dirt I said run, run, get it all done Don't neglect your daughter or your baby son I said a woman's worth, measured by her purse Never let you rise above the gods I go to work Every day to be worthy Of the ground on which I stand I go to work Can't nobody can hurt me This hammer in my hand I go to work Some turn to the bottle Some find peace in a church Whatever gets you through the night's all right But in the day I go to work
