Good Blood

I remember work boots sitting on a rug

Dirty from the chores of the day

I can smell the sawdust in my Papa's shop

And tell you where every tool hangs

I can see the Detroit posters on the wall

And the red, white and blue outside

I can hear his words I was told growing up

That'll outlive the hands of time

He said stand for the flag, honor your country

Fight for the things you believe in your soul

Keep on working, get your hands dirty

Never stop learning 'bout the things you don't know

Life's pretty simple if you quit overthinking

Want some advice, better sit down and listen

I don't have the answers, just a never ending love

Remember your raising, kid you got some good blood

Hot coffee brewing in a novelty mug

He drinks it black and I do too

Slow moving morning as the sun comes up

Overtop fresh water blue

I'm the granddaughter of an auto worker

And he's a proud veteran

Taught me how to play it tough and hold my ground

But always give a helping hand

He said stand for the flag, honor your country

Fight for the things you believe in your soul

Keep on working, get your hands dirty

Never stop learning 'bout the things you don't know

Life's pretty simple if you quit overthinking

Want some advice, better sit down and listen

I don't have the answers, just a never ending love

Remember your raising, kid you got some good blood

He said stand for the flag, honor your country

Fight for the things you believe in your soul

Keep on working, get your hands dirty

Never stop learning 'bout the things you don't know

Life's pretty simple if you quit overthinking

Want some advice, better sit down and listen

I don't have the answers, just a never ending love

Remember your raising, kid you got some good blood

Kid you got some good blood

I remember work boots sitting on a rug

Dirty from the chores of the day

I can smell the sawdust in my Papa's shop

And tell you where every tool hangs
