[Verse]
Steel toes scuffed, workin' dawn to the night
Calloused hands, dreamin' on that Arkansas light
She gone, left my heart ‘neath the willow tree
Echoes of her laugh still follow me
[Chorus]
Dust on the tires, pain in the chest
Whistlin’ Dixie through the weight of the stress
Blue-collar blues in the red dirt haze
Workin’ my soul ‘til the end of the days
[Verse 2]
Sweat on my brow, thinkin’ ‘bout her smile
Gravel road memories stretchin’ for miles
Traded love for a punch on the clock
Heart locked away where the quarter moons dock
[Chorus]
Dust on the tires, pain in the chest
Whistlin’ Dixie through the weight of the stress
Blue-collar blues in the red dirt haze
Workin’ my soul ‘til the end of the days
[Bridge]
Main street echoes when the whistle blows
Her name’s on the wind every time it flows
Lost her to the past, but her ghost ain't stray
Every mornin’ break she haunts my day
[Chorus]
Dust on the tires, pain in the chest
Whistlin’ Dixie through the weight of the stress
Blue-collar blues in the red dirt haze
Workin’ my soul ‘til the end of the days
