(Intro)
5:30 in the morning
I hit the ground running
Long before the sun comes up
I'm a man on a mission
My honey's in the kitchen
Pouring coffee in my favorite cup
I'm racing out the door
Jumping off the porch
For the bills, I gotta get paid
From my boots to my Chevy
I'm rough tough and ready
Son I'm American made
(Chorus)
I'm working and a praying
Sweating and a breaking my back
Before the weekend hits
On the tractors and the farms
Fences and the barns
I Know how sweet it is
I'm a flag waving
God fearing
Honky-tonk cold beer
Friday night goodnight kiss
You can call it what you want
It's a country boy's life well lived
(Verse)
From the factories and the mills
Prairies and the hills
There's a whole lotta fellas like me
Just a climbing and a clawing
Drilling and a sawing
Everyday just to make ends meat
We're the five o-clock crowd
We love to get loud
In our wranglers and pearl snap shirts
We're the salt of the earth
Heart of the land
And our blood is as red as the dirt
(Chorus)
We're working and a praying
Sweating and a breaking our backs
Before the weekend hits
On the tractors and the farms
Fences and the barns
You Know how sweet it is
We're a flag waving
God fearing
Honky-tonk cold beer
Friday night goodnight kiss
You can call it what you want
It's a country boy's life well lived
Yeah We're working and a praying
Sweating and a breaking our backs
Before the weekend hits
On the tractors and the farms
Fences and the barns
You Know how sweet it is
We're a flag waving
God fearing
Honky-tonk cold beer
Friday night goodnight kiss
Yall call it what you want
It's a country boy's life well lived
Yall call it what you want
It's a country boys life well lived
You can call it what you want
It's a country boys life well lived
