Hard Work

Everyday I feel the strain on my back

Ain’t ashamed of the stage that I’m at

Hand over hand one rung at a time

It’ll be that way til the day I die

Ooh if you think you know

What I’m talking bout

Ooh put your nose to the stone

And show me now

Up in the morning red rooter rising

Shake off the sleep cold rain is driving

Lace up your boots outrun the lightning

I gotta get paid

Its hard its hard its hard hard work

Its hard its hard its hard hard work

Its hard its hard its hard hard work

Its hard its hard its hard hard work

Little mud in the tread of my heels

Little blood on my knuckles of steel

Out in the country down in the city

This honest living ain’t always pretty

Ooh if you think you know

What I’m talking bout

Ooh put your nose to the stone

And show me now

Up in the morning red rooster rising

Shake off the sleep cold rain is driving

Lace up your boots outrun the lightning

I gotta get paid

Its hard its hard its hard hard work

Its hard its hard its hard hard work

Its hard its hard its hard hard work

Its hard its hard its hard hard work

Up with the sun, down with the moon

Back up when the sun comes up

Up with the sun, down with the moon

Back up when the sun comes up

Up in the morning red rooster rising

Shake off the sleep cold rain is driving

Lace up your boots outrun the lightning

I gotta get paid

Its hard its hard its hard hard work

Its hard its hard its hard hard work

Its hard its hard its hard hard work

Its hard its hard its hard hard work
