Lyrics
thirty years i've spent watching my soul seep into these walls. twenty years it took to turn this house into a home. all the cars in the front yard are running cause of my bare hands. well the boy he didn't want to learn to fix cars after school. or go hunting on the weekends before church. it never crossed his mind that these were life skills i'm passing on that would would carry on our name. never been much for fast talking or shiny things. working the land and the steel got me where i am today. now i'm raising a family that's caught up in finer things. what's gonna happen when i'm not around to fix your kitchen sink? or go hunting to fill the freezer full of meat? oil's past three thousand miles. the meaning of our name has changed. work, work, work. keep this name alive. disregard the finer things and silly lies.
