Lyrics

They say work hard and you'll get ahead but I'm just breakin' my back instead

Clockin' in just to pay that rent

Ain't much left when the day is spent

Boss man talkin' 'bout livin' the dream

The dream that's built on my routine

They raise the price

We keep the pace

Runnin' in place just to stay in the race

We built this town with our two hands

Blood in the dirt

Sweat in the sand

They make the rules

We make it stand

Yeah this land runs on a workin' man

Bills stack high

Pay check's thin

'Round and 'round that wheel we spin

They fly first class

We drive beat trucks

Still showin' up when the world gets rough

We built this town with our two hands

Blood in the dirt

Sweat in the sand

They make the rules

We make it stand

Yeah this land runs on a workin' man

Don't need your pity

Don't need your crown

We're the folks that keeps it spinnin' 'round

One more day we'll take that stand

You keep my soul from a workin' man

We built this town with our two hands

Blood in the dirt

Sweat in the sand

They make the rules

We make it stand

Yeah this land runs on a workin' man

We built this town with our two hands

Blood in the dirt

Sweat in the sand

They make the rules

We make it stand

Yeah this land runs on a workin' man
