Diesel On My Breath

Steel toes on the gas

Dust kickin’ up in the rearview

Paycheck thin as this air

But I still got enough to get a buzz, yeah (hey!)

Long week, long road

Hands cracked, smellin’ like work

Pull up, small-town glow

Cool can sweatin’ on my shirt

Got that diesel on my breath, beer on my lips

Cuss on my tongue and a grind in my fists

I ain’t rich, but I’m rich in this sweat

Turn it up loud, let the worries all drift

Diesel on my breath, beer on my lips

Laugh with my boys ‘til we all forget

Life hits hard, we just hit it back

With diesel on my breath and a backroad track

Barlight flicker on chrome

Shot glass scratchin’ the wood

Old scars, new jokes

We make the bad feel good (oh yeah)

Boot prints on that floor

We two-step our way through the mess

If this is all I own

It’s still more than they expect

Got that diesel on my breath, beer on my lips

Cuss on my tongue and a grind in my fists

I ain’t rich, but I’m rich in this sweat

Turn it up loud, let the worries all drift

Diesel on my breath, beer on my lips

Laugh with my boys ‘til we all forget

Life hits hard, we just hit it back

With diesel on my breath and a backroad track
