Blue Collar (J. Steele/B. Allmand)
If you don't count the overtime, it's a 40 grunt This American dream ain't easy on a paycheck twice a SSI FICA fedral and tax, only thing it's good for is settin' a man back
But I've got a 20 in my pocket and I'm gettin' the first And there's a band in the corner and they're gonna rock the And them from the Skynard show, how much you wanna bet There all ready in the back shootin' pool and cigarettes And we get lucky, if we play our cards right Chances are end up drunk just trying to pick a fight Singing Whoa all the way home.. Yeah shoot out the lights Its a Collar Night.
I'm still in that same red flat me and Gina hunted down, Cinder shevles and the lime green sofa pull out. Been two since I've seen her leave in that corvette. When I look this dump sometimes I see why she left.
But I've savin' up my money, started goin' back to school and I'm them computers and maybe in a year or two. I can start a buisness and if I get it off the ground. I can talk the bank into a loan for that place Gina about. And I bet she'll crawling back, I'll be sittin' here till then Drinkin' and throwin' darts and having laughs with all my friends.
Singing whoa all the why home. yeah we'll shoot out the lights, it's a collar night
I home to Gina's sweet voice coming out of my machine Said that LA sunshine is even better I dreamed I 3 more times, called my steve I lets go, he said I'm broke, I said grab your keys
I've got a 20 in my pocket and I'm gettin' the first round, And there's a band in the corner, gonna rock the house And girls from the Skynard show, how much you wanna bet They're already in the shootin' pool and smokin' cigarettes. Yeah we get lucky if we play our cards right But chances are we'll end up drunk just trying to pick a Whoooo all the way home Yeah shoot out the lights Its a Collar Night.
