"Steel Driver" lyrics

"Steel Driver"

These hands are made for working
And digging in the dirt and
You won't catch me sitting around town
Money's made for earning
Take it you deserve it
Lace them up and go another round

At night you'll find me drinking
And gunning for the weekend
Monday's there's a coffee in my hand

The sun ain't up but I sure am
40 weight cuts the gin
Lazy man always come in last
Clocking that 10 hour day
Don't know any other way
Counting bills and watch the hours pass

Well sign me up eight days a week
Dig and plow and stomp my feet
And driving nails and turning up the ground
Well, do it quick and do it right
Fuck it up and get out of line
Ain't no thing as momma's second chances

At night you'll find me drinking
And gunning for the weekend
Monday's there's a coffee in my hand

At night you'll find me drinking
And gunning for the weekend
Tomorrow's so far away
Taking some but giving shit
Setting back and let it hit
I didn't hear last call
Feels so good I got to thinking
I don't see what's wrong with drinking
