A Day In The Life Lyrics - Singles - River Road

(Gary Nicholson/Craig Wiseman) 

I'm up and out the door before the sun comes up 

Spillin' coffee, banging gears in my pickup truck 

Racing every red light, getting to the jobsite 

Bossman hollerin', boys you're burnin' daylight 

Sweatin' through a hard hat lunch in a brown sack 

Swing a hammer all day tryin' to get the bills paid 

Oh Oh, just a working man makin' his way 

Oh Oh, but you'll never hear me complain 

There's a whole lot to it but I gotta get through it 

So I'll do it til i get it done 

Just a day in the life of an 8 to 5, get it right 

Nail drivin' law abidin' hard workin' son of a gun 

Yeah when 5 o'clock come I'm burnin' up the road 

Haul it home shower down slick it up gotta go 

There's a roadside dancehall just about nightfall 

That's the place to be y'all women waitin' wall to wall 

Wearin' out the two step maybe learn a new step 

Crawlin' home by daylight get back to the jobsite 

Oh Oh, just a working man makin' his way 

Oh Oh, but you'll never hear me complain 

There's a whole lot to it but I gotta get through it 

So I'll do it til i get it done 

Just a day in the life of a dance floor dynamo 

Honky Tonk Romeo, 8 to 5 get it right nail drivin' 

Law abidin' good timin' hard workin 

Easy lovin' son of a gun 

Oh Oh, just a working man makin' his way 

Oh Oh, but you'll never hear me complain 

I know I'm burnin' both ends again and again 

But a man's gotta have his fun 

Another day in the life of a dance floor dynamo 

Honky Tonk Romeo, 8 to 5 get it right nail drivin' 

Law abidin' good timin' hard workin 

Easy lovin' son of a gun 

Another day in the life of a dance floor dynamo 

Honky Tonk Romeo, 8 to 5 get it right nail drivin' 

Law abidin' good timin' hard workin 

Easy lovin' son of a gun
