Mr. Blue Collar

They work around the clock
Might be diggin' a ditch
Hammering nails working straight 12's
Or rippin' a wrench
Every American town
From dusk til dawn
Yeah they're Climbing a pole or droppin' a line
To keep the lights turned on

Mr. Blue Collar, this one's for you
You're the sacrifice, the blood, sweat, tears, the red white and blue
The day's never over, the night's never through
The Job's never done Mr. Blue Collar still got work to do

Probably plowing a corn field
Might be paving a street, or
Mowing 30 acres a day just to make ends meet
Well you can find 'em in an oil field
They might be drillin' it down, or
Hauling a load on 18 wheels
Makin' the world go round

Mr. Blue Collar, this one's for you
We raise our glass, and we tip our hats
In a full salute
The day's never over, and the night's never through
The job's never done Mr. Blue Collar still got work to do

The steel workers of the USA
Thin blue line standing proud today
To all the firemen, EMT's and the rescue squads
The coal miners out in West Kentucky

Rollin' deep in that underground buggy
Close enough to hell that you can smell the devil
but still praying to God

They don't do it for glory
They don't do it for fame
They do it for the families that they love
Without a thing to gain
Seems to me
Time to make a stand
Cuz Them high class son of a guns forgot about the working man
DONT FORGET ABOUT THE WORKIN MAN!

Mr. Blue Collar, this one's for you
You're the sacrifice, the blood, sweat, tears, the red white and blue
The day's never over, the night's never through
The Job's never done Mr. Blue Collar still got work to do
