[Verse 1]
Sun's up on the barn
Cold steel in my grip
Sweat runs down my neck
I don't quit
Weathered hands, dirt on my boots
Back aching, I still move
[Pre-Chorus]
Some have it, some don't
That's what I was told
When the whole world leans
I lean back and hold
[Chorus]
Grit, grit, that's the line
Push on through, every time
Work through the sweat
Work through the pain
Grit, grit, I stay
Grit, grit, I stay
[Verse 2]
Muddy tracks by the gate
Splinters under my thumb
My shirt's stuck to my skin
But the job's still not done
If the load gets heavy
I dig in low
One more mile
One more row
[Pre-Chorus]
Some have it, some don't
That's what I was told
When the whole world leans
I lean back and hold
[Chorus]
Grit, grit, that's the line
Push on through, every time
Work through the sweat
Work through the pain
Grit, grit, I stay
Grit, grit, I stay
[Bridge]
Let the rain hit hard
Let the wind roll wild
I was made for the long road
I was made to try
Not for the easy
Not for the clean
Just a worn-out man
And a will to keep
[Chorus]
Grit, grit, that's the line
Push on through, every time
Work through the sweat
Work through the pain
Grit, grit, I stay
Grit, grit, I stay
