I'm up and out the door before the sun comes up
Spillin' coffee, banging gears in my pickup truck
Racing every red light, getting to the job site
Bossman hollerin', ââ¬Â½Boys, you're burnin' daylightââ¬Â
Sweatin' through a hard hat, lunch in a brown sack
Swing a hammer all day tryin' to get the bills paid
Oh oh, just a working man makin' his way
Oh oh, but you'll never hear me complain
There's a whole lot to it but I gotta get through it
So, I'll do it till I get it done
Just a day in the life of an 8 to 5, get it right
Nail drivin', law abidin', hard workin' son of a gun
Yeah, when 5 o'clock come I'm burnin' up the road
Haul it home, shower down, slick it up, gotta go
There's a roadside dancehall just about nightfall
That's the place to be y'all, women waitin' wall to wall
Wearin' out the two step, maybe learn a new step
Crawlin' home by daylight get back to the job site
Oh oh, just a working man makin' his way
Oh oh, but you'll never hear me complain
There's a whole lot to it but I gotta get through it
So, I'll do it till I get it done
Just a day in the life of a dance floor dynamo
Honky Tonk Romeo, 8 to 5 get it right
Nail drivin', law abidin', good timin', hard workin'
Easy lovin' son of a gun
Oh oh, just a working man makin' his way
Oh oh, but you'll never hear me complain
I know I'm burnin' both ends again and again
But a man's gotta have his fun
Another day in the life of a dance floor dynamo
Honky Tonk Romeo, 8 to 5 get it right
Nail drivin', law abidin', good timin', hard workin'
Easy lovin' son of a gun
Another day in the life of a dance floor dynamo
Honky Tonk Romeo, 8 to 5 get it right nail drivin'
Law abidin' good timin' hard workin
Easy lovin' son of a gun
