[00:11.60]I woke up this mornin', tied my boots up
[00:14.63] Cause I knew it's goin' to be a long day
[00:17.38] Fired my truck up, grabbed my coffee
[00:20.1] Kissed my baby, got on my way
[00:22.86] Cause I'm workin' 'til it's hurtin'
[00:25.69] That's the only way to make an honest day's pay
[00:28.39] So I'm workin' even when it's hurtin'
[00:31.27] That's the only way to make an honest day's wage
[00:36.90] Yeah, I'm up early with the birdies, ready to get dirty
[00:39.17] This ain't a song for you if you asleep at 7:30
[00:42.47] I rise like the sun; I'm the bag of the pounds
[00:45.23] A full throttle in the bottle like that home-made shine
[00:47.84] I'm just tryin' to make a livin', boss man trippin'
[00:50.43] My overtime's strong; I don't pay him no attention
[00:53.99] Money in the mason jar, country boy pension
[00:56.45] No lady, three kids, take a lot to fill the kitchen
[00:58.8] Fingernails dirty, my back stay hurtin'
[00:59.73] You can bet I got to play for every penny that I'm earnin'
[01:02.87] I ain't askin' for a raise, but I know the boss heard me
[01:05.18] Nobody on this job site's workin' like I'm workin'
[01:08.23] Thirty below to a hundred degrees
[01:10.47] You ain't pushin' hard enough if your hands don't bleed
[01:13.51] I'm the first to clock in and the last to leave
[01:15.95] I ain't never had a problem rollin' up my sleeves
[01:18.95] I woke up this mornin', tied my boots up
[01:21.56] Cause I knew it's goin' to be a long day
[01:24.60] Fired my truck up, grabbed my coffee
[01:26.92] Kissed my baby, got on my way
[01:29.74] Cause I'm workin' 'til it's hurtin'
[01:32.57] That's the only way to make an honest day's pay
[01:35.61] So I'm workin' even when it's hurtin'
[01:38.45] That's the only way to make an honest day's wage
[01:41.36] I'm out the door by the sun up, focused on the come-up
[01:44.33] We never sleep in, that ain't how we was brought up
[01:47.37] I push it to the limit when the money gets low
[01:51.35] And been known to work past when the plant whistle blows
[01:53.11] Pay check feelin' like a lottery ticket
[01:54.88] I might save a couple bucks if my kids don't spend it
[01:57.94] It don't matter cause I love it every day of my life
[02:00.44] Spent more time on the clock than I do with my wife
[02:03.93] State to state, never late, puttin' miles on the road
[02:06.65] Drop it off, fill it up, get me to my next load
[02:09.45] Call my old lady, let her know I'll be late
[02:11.79] And I ain't worry cause I know that she goin' to save me a plate
[02:14.62] I told you thirty below to a hundred degrees
[02:17.16] You ain't pushin' hard enough if your hands don't bleed
[02:20.26] I'm the first to clock in and the last to leave
[02:23.24] I ain't never had a problem rollin' up my sleeves
[02:25.72] I woke up this mornin', tied my boots up
[02:28.19] Cause I knew it's goin' to be a long day
[02:30.95] Fired my truck up, grabbed my coffee
[02:33.66] Kissed my baby, got on my way
[02:36.45] Cause I'm workin' 'til it's hurtin'
[02:39.27] That's the only way to make an honest day's pay
[02:42.20] So I'm workin' even when it's hurtin'
[02:44.36] That's the only way to make an honest day's wage
[02:59.87] Workin', workin'
[03:05.38] Workin', workin'
[03:09.97] I woke up this mornin', tied my boots up
[03:12.81] Cause I knew it's goin' to be a long day
[03:16.35] Fired my truck up, grabbed my coffee
[03:18.40] Kissed my baby, got on my way
