Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Clock’s flashin’ red
My eyes stuck on that screen
Cold coffee
Cold fries
Same four walls
Same routine
Boss says “you’re a blessing”
While he signs his name in gold
I’m prayin’ for a Sunday
In a Monday-colored soul
[Chorus]
I’ve been workin’ overtime for heaven
Punchin’ in these midnight prayers
Sweat in my shirt
Calloused confession
Loadin’ faith on busted chairs
If the good Lord’s keepin’ tally
On the wrong and on the right
I’m on time and a half to heaven
Pullin’ doubles every night (oh yeah)
[Verse 2]
Steel toes in the gravel
Boot dust on the dash
Radio preachin’ mercy
While the gas light blinks on flash
Mama left a message
“Baby
Don’t you lose your joy”
But I’m stuck between a paycheck
And the dreams I can’t employ
[Chorus]
I’ve been workin’ overtime for heaven
Punchin’ in these midnight prayers
Sweat in my shirt
Calloused confession
Loadin’ faith on busted chairs
If the good Lord’s keepin’ tally
On the wrong and on the right
I’m on time and a half to heaven
Pullin’ doubles every night (hey!)
[Instrumental]
[guitar solo over extended chorus chords
Drums and organ swell
Vocal hums in background]
[Bridge]
I said I’m tired of feelin’ empty
Tired of feelin’ used
But You walked into my break room
Sat beside my worn-out shoes
You said “son
I see your struggle
I’m the clock you can’t outrun”
Laid my paycheck on the altar
Found out the work was already done
[Chorus]
Still I’m workin’ overtime for heaven
But the load don’t feel as hard
Got a back-row hallelujah
Right here in this factory yard
If the good Lord’s keepin’ tally
Then His grace is inked in bright
I’m on time and a half to heaven
But I’m ridin’ in His light
[Outro]
Time and a half to heaven
Punchin’ out at morning’s rise
Grease on my hands
Heart forgiven
Clockin’ in on the other side
