We were just river kids Pickin' up stones like David did Watchin' them long necks break off of Freight Train Bridge We went to church in a Detroit car Our daddies drank draft at the local bar With an achin' back just like old granddad did And we like cold keg beer and fixin' up trucks Old bird dogs and the woman we love Maxwell House steamin' out of a coffee cup We say our prayers, send 'em to the sky Bust our backs, barely getting by Carolina to California, up to Illinois Yeah, there's guys like us Blue collar boys We're the white paint peeling off a picket fence The rust stains covering a Craftsman wrench When the sun's coming up, you can bet we're clocking in Cash our paycheck, two day break, and do it again We like cold keg beer and fixin' up trucks Old bird dogs and the woman we love Maxwell House steamin' out of a coffee cup We say our prayers, send 'em to the sky Bust our backs, barely getting by Carolina to California, up to Illinois Yeah, there's guys like us Blue collar boys We're worn out boots and old Levi's The wind behind the Stars and Stripes And we like cold keg beer and fixin' up trucks Old bird dogs and the woman we love Maxwell House steamin' out of a coffee cup We say our prayers, send 'em to the sky Bust our backs, barely getting by Carolina to California, up to Illinois Yeah, there's guys like us Yeah, there's guys like us Blue collar boys Blue collar boys

I heard you talking about the state that were living in. And I feel again. I never could win. There I saw you walking. Another lover right by your side. Why can't you play fair? But I do not care. Just another lonely weekend. Just another weekend without you. I will shed no tears. Girl, I will survive. It's just another weekend alone. Another lonely weekend. I'm tired of waiting. Infatuation is over now. I made up my mind. So don't waste my time. Don't call me a loser. Don't need your love till the end of time. For I had my share. So I do not care.
