|
My daddy worked construction |
|
My brother too |
|
He got me in the union |
|
I'm payin' my dues |
|
Oh but the woman I love |
|
Has expensive taste |
|
She's never satisfied |
|
The latest things |
|
A diamond ring |
|
A car with an ultra-glide |
|
I work so hard |
|
Payin' for all that stuff |
|
Eight shifts a week |
|
It's never enough |
|
I'm layin' pipe all night long |
|
Layin' pipe |
|
I'm workin' so hard |
|
I'm layin' pipe |
|
All night long |
|
Layin' pipe |
|
To satisfy that woman |
|
I don't mind working |
|
If the money's okay |
|
I take the night shift |
|
I sleep all day |
|
Dust and mud is in my blood |
|
Underground cable in my way |
|
I punch a clock and start my rig |
|
Don't know how deep I might have to dig |
|
I wish I had a million dollars |
|
To buy her everything she needs |
|
She'd only come back for more and more and more and more and more and more and more |
|
I'm layin' pipe |
|
All night long |
|
Layin' pipe |
|
I'm working so hard |
|
I'm layin' pipe |
|
All night long |
|
Layin' pipe |
|
To satisfy that woman |
|
I put the pipe in |
|
I pull it out again |
|
My back is so sore |
|
I can't work much more |
|
I can't get my traction |
|
The ground's too wet |
|
I take a ten minute break |
|
Ah smoke a cigarette |
|
I don't mind the night shift |
|
The cool breeze when the sun goes down |
|
Winter time the ground is hard |
|
Take twice as long to drill down |
|
I'm layin' pipe |
|
All night long |
|
Layin' pipe |
|
I'm working so hard |
|
I'm layin' pipe |
|
All night long |
|
Layin' pipe |
|
To satisfy that woman |
