Lyric A Day In The Life

(Gary Nicholson/Craig Wiseman)

I m up and out the door before the sun comes up
Spillin coffee, banging gears in my pickup truck
Racing every red light, getting to the jobsite
Bossman hollerin , boys you re burnin daylight
Sweatin through a hard hat lunch in a brown sack
Swing a hammer all day tryin to get the bills paid

Oh Oh, just a working man makin his way
Oh Oh, but you ll never hear me complain
There s a whole lot to it but I gotta get through it
So I ll do it til i get it done
Just a day in the life of an 8 to 5, get it right
Nail drivin law abidin hard workin son of a gun

Yeah when 5 o clock come I m burnin up the road
Haul it home shower down slick it up gotta go
There s a roadside dancehall just about nightfall
That s the place to be y all women waitin wall to wall
Wearin out the two step maybe learn a new step
Crawlin home by daylight get back to the jobsite

Oh Oh, just a working man makin his way
Oh Oh, but you ll never hear me complain
There s a whole lot to it but I gotta get through it
So I ll do it til i get it done
Just a day in the life of a dance floor dynamo
Honky Tonk Romeo, 8 to 5 get it right nail drivin
Law abidin good timin hard workin
Easy lovin son of a gun

Oh Oh, just a working man makin his way
Oh Oh, but you ll never hear me complain
I know I m burnin both ends again and again
But a man s gotta have his fun
Another day in the life of a dance floor dynamo
Honky Tonk Romeo, 8 to 5 get it right nail drivin
Law abidin good timin hard workin
Easy lovin son of a gun

Another day in the life of a dance floor dynamo
Honky Tonk Romeo, 8 to 5 get it right nail drivin
Law abidin good timin hard workin
Easy lovin son of a gun
