[Verse 1]
This ol' white van, is filled with sand
From a beach half a country away
I'm grinding it out down in Birmingham
For twenty people on a Tuesday
[Verse 2]
Got a checkered past, a half full glass
A helluva long way to go
I learned enough lessons to keep on betting
On the only damn thing I know
[Chorus]
If you wanna be strong
You gotta lift heavy stones
Gotta wake up early
Party all night long
[Chorus]
Thoughts being what they was
They're always back at home
If you wanna be strong
You gotta lift heavy stones
[Verse 3]
Seventeen came and went
And I wasn't never any good at school
But I'll hang my hat on knowing
That I did what I needed to
[Verse 4]
I went out last night to Mickey's bar
Planned on puttin' em away
I racked up a tab, didn't pay a dime
'Cause somebody knew my name
[Chorus]
If you wanna be strong
You gotta lift heavy stones
Gotta wake up early
Party all night long
[Chorus]
Thoughts being what they was
They're always back at home
If you wanna be strong
You gotta lift heavy stones
[Bridge]
If you wanna be strong
You gotta lift heavy stones
You gotta wake up early
Party all night long
[Chorus]
If you wanna be strong
Gotta lift heavy stones
Gotta wake up early
Party all night long
[Chorus]
Thoughts being what they was
They're always back at home
If you wanna be strong
Gotta lift heavy stones
[Outro]
If you wanna be strong
Gotta lift heavy stones
