Grindin' Ain't Easy

(Verse 1) Breaking my back every day, day, day, Working like a dog for next to no pay, pay, pay. I could barely feed my family today, day, day, But I'm up and at it just to say I did it anyway, way, way. And don't you tell me to know my place, Do you see a smile on my face? (No, you don't!) I'm not afraid of the boogie man, I got a sawed off in my left hand. (So bring it on!) (Chorus) I wake up at the crack of dawn, Pull on my pants and put my boots on. Lace 'em up, pick it up, pack it up, In the back of my pickup truck. (Verse 2) Sun's rising high in the Florida sky, Got a long day ahead, no time to be shy. Hard work's my mantra, sweat on my brow, Gonna make it through somehow, somehow, somehow. No silver spoon in my mouth, no sirree, Just grit and determination, can't you see? From sunrise to sunset, I'll give it my all, In this land where dreams stand tall, tall, tall. (Chorus) I wake up at the crack of dawn, Pull on my pants and put my boots on. Lace 'em up, pick it up, pack it up, In the back of my pickup truck. Every callous on my hand tells a story, Of struggles faced and battles won, oh glory! I won't back down, won't give in, I'll fight till the very end, my friend. (Verse 3) So here I stand, a man of pride, With my head held high, I won't be denied. Through sweat and tears, I'll pave my way, To a brighter tomorrow, come what may, may, may. No riches to my name, but I'm rich in soul, In this world where heart's the ultimate goal. I'll keep pushing forward, come rain or shine, In this life of mine, oh divine, divine, divine. (Chorus) I wake up at the crack of dawn, Pull on my pants and put my boots on. Lace 'em up, pick it up, pack it up, In the back of my pickup truck. So here's to the hard-working folks, The ones who never settle, never choke. In the land of opportunity, we stand tall, Together we rise, united, one and all. (Chorus/Outro) I wake up at the crack of dawn, Pull on my pants and put my boots on. Lace 'em up, pick it up, pack it up, In the back of my pickup truck. So here's to the hard-working folks, The ones who never settle, never choke. In the land of opportunity, we stand tall, Together we rise, united, one and all.
