Feet in the Sand, Pole in the Water

[Verse 1]
Punchin’ in at dawn
Name tag, fake smile on
Boss talk big like he own my time
Clock say different, this life still mine
Paycheck thin like the coffee in the breakroom
Rent due, same day, sittin’ in my face too
Countin’ every cent in the checkout line
Still I throw it in a jar for a better time (yeah)
[Chorus]
Feet in the sand, pole in the water
Whole damn week been workin’ me harder
Livin’ on crumbs but I still thank God, yeah
Makin’ the best of the little I got, yeah
Roll one up, let the world get smaller
Let that smoke lift the weight off my collar
Ain’t got much but it’s more than a dollar
Feet in the sand, pole in the water
[Verse 2]
Hand-me-down truck, rust on the fender
Tank on E, heart still tender
Mama on the phone say she prayin’ for me
I laugh it off, but I need that story
Work hard, shit pay, same routine
Steak on my mind, ramen in my sink
But my crew still laugh on the second-hand couch
Turn the bad to a brag, we gon’ figure it out (uh)
[Chorus]
Feet in the sand, pole in the water
Whole damn week been workin’ me harder
Livin’ on crumbs but I still thank God, yeah
Makin’ the best of the little I got, yeah
Roll one up, let the world get smaller
Let that smoke lift the weight off my collar
Ain’t got much but it’s more than a dollar
Feet in the sand, pole in the water
[Bridge]
If this all I get, I’ma hold it tight
Cheap beer, good friends, and a quiet night
Can’t buy peace, but I found this spot
Where the waves don’t care what I ain’t got (hey)
[Chorus]
Feet in the sand, pole in the water
Whole damn week been workin’ me harder
Livin’ on crumbs but I still thank God, yeah
Makin’ the best of the little I got, yeah
Roll one up, let the world get smaller
Let that smoke lift the weight off my collar
Ain’t got much but it’s more than a dollar
Feet in the sand, pole in the water
