He works way too much for way too little

He drinks way too early till way too late

He hasn't had a raise since New Year's Day in '88

Gets trampled on by everyone

Except when he comes in here

Now, he's the product of the Haggard generation

He's got a redneck side when you get him agitated

He got the gold-tooth look for a stiff right hook he's proud he took

For his right-wing stand on Vietnam

Says he lost his brother there

He yells out, "Johnny Cash!"

And the band starts to play

A Ring of Fire as he walks up

And stands there by the stage

And he says

"Hell yeah, turn it up, right on

Hell yeah, sounds good, sing that song

Guitar man, playing all night long

Take me back to where the music hit me

Life was good and love was easy"

She's got an MBA and a plush corner office

She's got a don't-mess-with-me attitude

She'll close a deal, she don't reveal that she can feel

The loneliness, the emptiness

Except when she comes in here

She's the product of the "Me generation"

She's got a rock 'n' roll side when you get her agitated

She got a tattoo there on her derrière from a spring break dare

In Panama where love was all

She thought she's ever need

She yells out to the band

"Know any Bruce Springsteen?"

Then she jumps up on the bar

And she, and she starts to scream

She says

"Hell yeah, turn it up, right on

Hell yeah, sounds good, sing that song

Guitar man, playing all night long

Take me back to where the music hit me

Life was good and love was easy

Yeah, yeah

Anything to get my mind off thinking about

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday

Hey, hell yeah"

Hell yeah, turn it up, right on

Hell yeah, sounds good, sing that song

Guitar man, playing all night long

Take me back to where the music hit me

Life was good

Hell yeah, turn it up, right on

Hell yeah, sounds good, sing that song

Guitar man, playing all night long

Take me back to where the music hit me

Life was good and love was easy
