Verse 1 Sun come up, I'm already gone Coffee black, boots on before the dawn Boss man callin', says we gotta push Another double shift, yeah I'm feelin' the crush Hands are blistered, back's screamin' loud But the bills keep comin', can't back down now Sweat in my eyes, dirt on my jeans Livin' this life like a broken machine Pre-Chorus I keep grindin', keep grindin' away Every hour feel like it's takin' a piece of me Chorus Breakin' my bones, workin' too hard Chasin' that dollar, playin' that card Heart's still beatin' but my soul's gettin' scarred Yeah, I'm breakin' my bones, workin' too hard Lord, I'm breakin' my bones... workin' too hard Verse 2 Friday night lights, but I ain't there Beer with the boys? Man, I just stare At the clock on the wall, tickin' overtime Dreams of a porch swing and a cold one in time She waits up for me with that worried smile Says "baby come home," but I'm stuck for a while Truck's got 200 thousand miles on the dash Just like me, runnin' on fumes and cash Pre-Chorus I keep grindin', keep grindin' away Prayin' one day it'll all be okay Chorus Breakin' my bones, workin' too hard Chasin' that dollar, playin' that card Heart's still beatin' but my soul's gettin' scarred Yeah, I'm breakin' my bones, workin' too hard Lord, I'm breakin' my bones... workin' too hard Bridge One of these days I'm gonna slow it on down Find me a river, throw my worries around But till then I'm pushin', till my hands give out Holdin' on tight to what this life's about Final Chorus (bigger, with harmony) Breakin' my bones, workin' too hard But I got my family, I got my heart One day I'll rest when the good Lord calls Till then I'm breakin' my bones... workin' too hard Yeah, I'm breakin' my bones... Workin' too damn hard Outro Sun go down, but the work don't stop Breakin' my bones... never gonna drop (fading guitar riff)
