[Intro]
Steel toes by the front door
Flannel on that work floor
Red hat, tool bag, truck keys
Thank God for these rough hands, concrete dreams
[Verse 1]
Up before the frost, coffee in a foam cup
Snow on the forms but we still show up
Men of Concrete, yeah we pour that pride
Rebar hearts, keep it straight, keep it lined
Hands cracked white from the mix and the freeze
Knees in the mud, still drop to our knees
Thankful for the strength, for the day, for the grind
Lay it down square so our kids do fine
[Chorus]
Merry Christmas from the Men of Concrete (yeah)
Blessed by the calloused hands on our feet (woo)
Work hard for our family, that’s the beat
To the ones who ride with us, and the ones who throw shade
Merry Christmas to supporters and the haters, we paid
Every slab, every pad, every driveway we laid
[Verse 2]
Truck bed full of tools, candy canes on the dash
Boss man laughing, playlist full of twang and trap
Snowflakes falling on the fresh trowel lines
Steam from the mud while the church bells chime
Mama in the kitchen, kids waitin’ by the tree
We’re out here hustling so that light bill’s free
Grateful for the jobs, for the bids we won
Even when they doubt us, we just get it done (let’s go)
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Salute to the ones that pray for our days
And the ones on the side still throwing that shade
You talking, we walking
Boots on the slab, that’s faith
Every crack we fix, every wall we raise
Another reason for a Merry Christmas day
Thankful for the chance just to sweat, just to eat
Men of Concrete, yeah we bless these streets
[Chorus]
