Six AM, the coffee's thin and black
My knees are creakin' and my lower back
Three pairs of muddy cleats across the floor
And half-baked homework by the kitchen door (hoo-wee)
I'm pushing forty-five, carrying some weight
Running on coffee and arriving late But we're loading up the truck,
here we go
Oh, we're juggling the dreams on a working man's dime Trying to
catch a break and get to practice on time Got a dent
in the fender and some holes in my shoes But we're singing
along to the working-man blues (yee-haw)
Coach says my boy is swinging for the fence
But the cost of new equipment makes no sense Got a squeak
in the alternator, bills in the mail Just a tired heavy daddy
riding on the rail (hahaha)
Oh, we're juggling the dreams on a working man's dime Trying to
catch a break and get to practice on time Got a dent
in the fender and some holes in my shoes But we're singing
along to the working-man blues (yeah)
Yeah, we're singing along Just keep rolling along (mm-hmm)
