[Verse 1] Clock in before the sun Back stiff, boots on You talk about ideals I’m hauling what you want Rent climbs on the porch Groceries in the cart We don’t all live on talk Some of us punch hard [Pre-Chorus] And I hear the speeches I hear the spin But the dinner table Still feels thin [Chorus] not all of us can be liberals some of us have to work Canada's turning upside down fuels way to much canada (way too much, way too much) [Verse 2] Mud on the work pants Diesel on my hands Bridge lights over the river But I still make my stand Snowbanks on the shoulder Salt burns through the tire Folks keep saying “wait” While the bills get higher [Pre-Chorus] And I hear the speeches I hear the spin But the dinner table Still feels thin [Chorus] not all of us can be liberals some of us have to work Canada's turning upside down fuels way to much canada (way too much, way too much) [Bridge] I don’t want a fight I want the month to fit I want a full fridge And a little bit of grit Give me honest wages Give me ground to stand Don’t hand me a lecture With an empty hand [Final Chorus] not all of us can be liberals some of us have to work Canada's turning upside down fuels way to much canada (way too much, way too much)
