Verse 1:
D Em
Every thing you know about me is written on this page
G D
A number you can reach me, my social, and my age
D Emaa
Yes I served in the Army, it's where I learned to shoote-
G D,.-
Eighteen months in the desert, pouring sand out of my boots
Em G
No I've never been convicted of a crime
Em G
I could start this job at any time

Chorus 1:
D Em
I've got a strong back, steel toes I rarely call in sick
G D
A good truck, what I don't know, I catch on real quick
D Em
I work weekends, if I have to, Nights and Holidays
G D
Give you forty, and then some, whatever it takes
Em G
Three dollars and change at the pump
Em D
The cost of living's high, and going up

Verse 2:
D Em
I put Robert down as a reference, he's known me all my life
G D
We attend the same church, he introduced me to my wife
D Em
Gave my last job everything, before it headed south
G
Took the shoes off of my children's feet,
D
the food out of their mouths
Em G
Yesterday my folks offered to help
Em G
But they're barely getting by themselves

Chorus 1:
D Em
I've got a strong back, steel toes I rarely call in sick
G D
A good truck, what I don't know, I catch on real quick
D Em
I work weekends, if I have to, Nights and Holidays
G D
Give you forty, and then some, whatever it takes
Em G
Three dollars and change at the pump
Em D
The cost of living's high, and going up

Bridge:
Em G
I'm sure a hundred others have applied
Em G
Rumor has it you're only taking five

Chorus 2:
D Em
I've got a strong back, steel toes, I'm handy with a wrench
G D
There's nothing I can't drive, nothing I can't fix
D Em
I work sun up, 'til sun down, ain't to proud to sweep the floor
G D
The bank has started calling, and the wolves are at my door
Em G
Three dollars and change at the pump
Em D
The cost of living's high and going up

Outro through D
