Hard Workin’ Man

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] 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 Feel like I'm workin' overtime on a runaway train I've got to bust loose from this ball and chain [Chorus] I'm a hard, hard-workin' man I got it all on the line for a piece of the promised land And I'm burnin' my candle at both ends 'Bout the only way to keep the fire goin' is to outrun the wind [Piano & Violin Solo] [Verse 3] 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, y'all, from nine to five [Chorus] I'm a hard, hard-workin' man I got it all on the line for a piece of the promised land Yeah, I'm burnin' my candle at both ends 'Bout the only way to keep the fire goin' is to outrun the wind [Outro] I can't wait to get up in the morning and do it all over again Well, I'm a hard-livin', hard-workin' man
