Blue Collar Aint Easy

I pay a mortgage on a house that I don't see
I feed a dog that barely knows me
Got a brand-new truck I can't keep clean
Keep cutting my grass that I can't see
I got a shop full of tools that I can't use
List of things that I wish I'd do
If I had more time, I would
Do all the things I should

Life's been running me ragged
Time, I wish I had it
I'm on the go more than home
Sometimes it feels like a dead end road
And I wake up, drink a cup of coffee
End my night with a shot of whiskey
Never slow down, never give up
Like these boots, I wear all tied up
And I feel like l work more than I sleep
Blue collar ain't easy

Feels like a dream I can't keep up
And all I do just ain't enough
Overtime's just a gamble
But they say it'll make you tough
They say money doesn't make the world spin round
The last I checked, my bills don't slow down
Here to stay while I'm gone
And I'm keeping the lights on

Life's been running me ragged
Time, I wish I had it
I'm on the go more than home
Sometimes it feels like a dead end road
And I wake up, drink a cup of coffee
End my night with a shot of whiskey
Never slow down, never give up
Like these boots, I wear all tied up
And I feel like l work more than I sleep
Blue collar ain't easy
