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 And 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 off from nine till five I'm a hard, hard workin' man I got it all on the line, for a peace 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 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
