[Verse]
Boots in the mud sun on my back
Steel towers rising ain't no time to slack
Hope for gushers but dusters roll in
This roughneck life is where I begin
[Prechorus]
The drill keeps turning we chase that black gold
Hands get calloused but the pride takes hold
[Chorus]
Monday to Saturday breaking my bones
The oilfield's a house and the rig is my home
New guy gets the key to the V-door
Damn pusher yells but I’ll give him more
[Verse 2]
Sweat like rain under a hot Texas sky
Mud on my face but my spirit won’t die
Chains are rattling steel bites the ground
The whistle blows we’re rigging down
[Prechorus]
The drill keeps turning we chase that black gold
The fire inside me burns hotter than cold
[Chorus]
Monday to Saturday breaking my bones
The oilfield's a house and the rig is my home
New guy gets the key to the V-door
Damn pusher yells but I’ll give him more
