Oilfield life

The Offshore Life

Outlaw Country

The offshore life, two weeks gone, Boots hit the deck before the crack of dawn. Coffee black and the Gulf runs mean, Steel-toed soldiers on a diesel machine.

Supervisor hollers, "Come here hand," Got a weld to burn and a job to stand. Superintendent runs the crew all night, Making sure every damn thing's done right.

Hard work, clean living, that's the code, Making our way on a rough-cut road. Salt in our blood, sweat on our skin, Every hitch starts where the grind begins.

Wakin' up early, gettin' shit done, Yeah yeahhh yes, workin' like a dog in the sun. Offshore life, it ain't always fun, But we're makin' that money while the job gets done. Oilfield Bad Ass, that's what we've become, Fightin' steel and storms 'til the paycheck comes. Wakin' up early, gettin' shit done, Yeah yeahhh yes, workin' like a dog in the sun.

From the holder to the shoulder, sparks fly bright, Welders burnin' rods through the dead of night. "Tack that steel," don't let her sway, Forty-foot seas wanna take it away.

North wind blowin', rig shakin' hard, Sea spray hittin' like a prison yard. Hands stay grindin' while the breakers roll, A little bit crazy and a whole lotta soul.

Hard work, clean living, stand your ground, Ain't no quit when the horns sound. Everybody pullin' till the shift is through, That's the kind of men that make this crew.

Wakin' up early, gettin' shit done, Yeah yeahhh yes, workin' like a dog in the sun. Offshore life, it ain't always fun, But we're makin' that money while the job gets done. Oilfield Bad Ass, that's what we've become, Fightin' steel and storms 'til the paycheck comes. Wakin' up early, gettin' shit done, Yeah yeahhh yes, workin' like a dog in the sun.

Helicopter blades and a rough Gulf tide, Missing our babies and our ladies tonight. Living by the weather and the captain's call, One wrong move and she'll humble us all.

But we climb back out when the morning comes, Put our gloves back on and start to run. Cause pride ain't something that money can buy, It's earning your place beneath that sky.

Wakin' up early, gettin' shit done, Yeah yeahhh yes, workin' like a dog in the sun. Offshore life, it ain't always fun, But the toughest damn men keep pushin' on. Oilfield Bad Ass till the day we're done, From the holder to the shoulder, son. Wakin' up early, gettin' shit done, Yeah yeahhh yes, workin' like a dog in the sun.

Outro The offshore life... Salt, steel, and sacrifice... Hard work, clean living... And gettin' shit done
