Everythin' to know about me
Is written on this page
A number you can reach me
My social and my age

Yes, I served in the army
It's where I learned to shoot
Eighteen months in the desert
Pourin' sand out of my boots

No, I've never been convicted of a crime
I could start this job at any time

I got a strong back, steel toes
I rarely call in sick
A good truck, what I don't know
I catch on real quick

I work weekends if I have to
Nights and holidays
Give you forty and then some
Whatever it takes

Three dollars and change at the pump
The cost of livin's high and goin' up

I put Robert down as a reference
He's known me all my life
We attend the same church
He introduced me to my wife

Gave my last job everythin'
Before it headed south
Took the shoes off of my children's feet
And food out of their mouths

Yesterday my folks offered to help
But they're barely gettin' by themselves

I got a strong back, steel toes
I rarely call in sick
A good truck, what I don't know
I catch on real quick

I work weekends if I have to
Nights and holidays
Give you forty and then some
Whatever it takes

Three dollars and change at the pump
The cost of livin's high and goin' up

I'm sure a hundred others have applied
Rumor has it you're only takin' five

I got a strong back, steel toes
I'm handy with a wrench
There's nothin' I can't drive
Nothin' I can't fix

I work sunup to sundown
Ain't too proud to sweep the floors
The bank has started callin'
And the wolves are at my door

Three dollars and change at the pump
The cost of livin's high and goin' up
