Hard Hat And A Hammer

Lace-up boots and faded jeans
 A homemade sandwich, a half jug of tea
 Average Joe, average pay
 Same old end and same old day
 But there's nothing wrong with a hard hat and a hammer
 Kind of glue that sticks this world together
 Hands of steel and cradle of the Promised Land
 God bless the working man

 All week long making a living
 Life keeps takin', he keeps giving
 Behind the scene, below the grade
 Hardly noticed but part of everything
 But there's nothing wrong with a hard hat and a hammer
 Kind of glue that sticks this world together
 Hands of steel and cradle of the Promised Land
 God bless the working man

 He gives his life then fades away
 Another young man takes his place
 Average Joe, average pay
 Same old end, same old day
 But there's nothing wrong with a hard hat and a hammer
 Kind of glue that sticks this world together
 Hands of steel and cradle of the Promised Land
 No, there's nothing wrong with a hard hat and a hammer
 Kind of glue that sticks this world together
 Hands of steel and cradle of the Promised Land
 God bless the working man
 The working man
 Oh, the working man
