Subject: Hard Workin' Man - Brooks n' Dunn - In the key of C
Status:   

I'm a hard workin' man
I wear a steel hard hat
I can ride, rope, hammer and paint
Do thing with my hands that most men can't
I can't get ahead no matter how hard I try
I'm getting really good at bearely getting by

Got everything I own
By the sweat of my brow
>From my four-wheel drive to my cowboy boats
I owe it all to my blue-collar roots
Feel like I'm workin' overtime on a runaway train
I've got to bust loose from this ball and chain

I'm a hard; hard workin' man
I've got it all on the line for a piece of the promised land
And I'm burnin' my candle at both ends
About the only way to keep the fire going is to out-run the wind

(solos)

Come Friday night
I like to party hard
I carry on with the Cadillac cuties
Spend a whole week's pay on some weekend beauty
Come Monday morning I'm the first to arrive
I ain't nothin' but business from nine to five

I'm a hard; hard workin' man
I've got it all on the line for a piece of the promised land
And I'm burnin' my candle at both ends
About the only way to keep the fire going is to out-run the wind
I can't wait to get up in the mornin'
And do it all over again
Well I'm a hard livin', hard workin' man

And women too
