[Intro - spoken over sparse beat] Now here's a little story I've got to tell About some big trucks that you know so well They got a job to do, a road to lay So sit right back, let me tell you 'bout their day [Hook] We're coming through... Yeah, we're coming through... We're coming through... We're the road crew [Verse 1 - The Crew] Six trucks rolling, yeah we on our way Something big is going dizzown today Compactor, Scraper, Grader — beep beep Roller and Striper creepin down the street Water Truck is set, Paver blow that huff This road-building crew? We tough enough Rumbling, revving, shaking up the ground All the homies gather 'round From here to there, load by load 'Bout to lay a mega road [Verse 2 - Dig and Clear] Excavator first, he digging in Scooping boulders — that's where we begin Lifting trees and trash, he do it with ease Skid Steer on the assist, done with a breeze They clear tons of loads up out the way Dump Truck haul 'em all, he don't play Bulldozer roll up heavy on the site Pushing through the dirt with all his might Stumps and rocks and rubble too Ripping, tearing — yeah he's coming through [Hook] We're coming through... Yeah, we're coming through... We're coming through... We're the road crew [Verse 3 - Shape and Spray] Scraper on the scene, reshaping land Cutting, clearing — smooth and strong, understand? Sharp and rugged blade, nah she don't play Embankment and the roadbed — laid today When the grit and dust begin to fly Water Truck is posted, standing by Jets of water spraying on the ground So the dust and dirt don't blow around Keeping it clear so we can see the way Every truck is locked in for the day [Verse 4 - Flatten and Pave] Compactor love the job, he rolling slow Squishing with the spikes from head to toe Heavy wheels push down, he going hard Smashing, mashing, yard by yard Grader know exactly what to do Sharp blade cut the surface smooth right through Every bump and every groove is gone She leave it flat and make it strong Paver's hopper filled, she steady now Rolling slow, laying blacktop down Spreading asphalt all the way She gon' cover this whole road today [Hook] We're coming through... Yeah, we're coming through... We're coming through... We're the road crew [Instrumental Break] [Verse 5 - Finish Line] Roller with a 22-ton load Going over every inch of road Pushing, squishing, just like that Make the surface hard and flat Cement Mixer pulling on the scene Pouring every load up smooth and clean Curbs and gutters, fresh concrete Lining both sides of the street [Verse 6 - Open Up] Crane Truck hang the signs and lights Set 'em in all straight and tight Striper Truck gon' mark the street Ribbons sprayed on, clean and neat Yellow lines and white lines show All the traffic where to go One more thing we gotta do — Let the traffic all roll through Road is open up at last All the cars go swooshing past [Hook] We're coming through... Yeah, we're coming through... We're coming through... We're the road crew [Outro - slowing down] The trucks turn back to look and smile "This was awesome — every mile" This big job was tough but fun Now we drive off, one by one Proud that we have done our best The trucks roll home to get some rest Away we rumble, out of sight Good job, road builders... and goodnight [Instrumental Outro]
