Prompt / Lyrics
Working offshore in the P&a division getting on the road interstate 55 ..leaving Mississippi driving through tha boot headed to Houma down highway 90 made it to the shop having the crew safety meeting now loaded up in tha van headed to dock now checking in at the gate with tha twic card loaded up on tha crew boat lady lab headed to sea 7 foot seas face turning green holding it in finally after 4 hours Make it to the liftboat Charleston have to swallow breakfast to be able to make the safety meeting taking notes getting the plans for the day going out on the deck making relief making all tha compliance checks an fueling up equipment trying to get ahold of the crane operator to pick up wire for D , baby juju aka G on the pump to test …wrong turn Joe bob in the wellbay , turbo Todd on the prowl stuck in wide open …while burns jus tries to keep the morale up an work with everyone to keep the project running smooth we are the A team for a reason we’er more than jus a team we family working one hundred plus hour weeks our two weeks go bye …one hundred percent productive no accidents not even a scratch ..maybe gained a few pounds …headed in making it back to land , no better feeling in this world until we make it home to our wife’s an families , an that’s why we do what we do ,to provide for ourselves an families life of the oilfield , people will never understand the dangers of the jobs we do but it’s tha career we chose swinging hammers and turning bolts and burnt up clothes from cutting up pipes! banned from nights cause the Exxon reps want the best working days cause we are smooth and precise we be all in your hair like lice getting the job done cant nobody mess with us cause the other crews be like k d they working like they have the flu let me quit playing we all one crew keep the job going and making that money but some of us were not that lucky this one individual got pointed back to tha beach now he’s sitting at home watching the new avatar and plenty of time to play his guitar and that’s how I’m end this song
