E I'm a hard workin' man; I wear a steel hard hat A I can ride, rope, hammer and paint E Do things with my hands that most men can't B7 I can't get ahead no matter how hard I try E 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 chainCome 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 from nine till five (Chorus) B7 E I can't wait to get up in the mornin' and do it all over again B7 E Well I'm a hard livin', hard workin' manA C E I'm a hard, hard workin man B7 E I got it all on the line for a peace of the promised land A C E I'm burnin' my candle at both ends B7 E 'Bout the only way to keep the fire goin', is to outrun the wind
