Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sun ain’t up
But the beacons glow
Coffee in a thermos
Stickered hard hat
Ready to go
Steel-toe ghosts
On a gravel lot
Diesel in my veins
Clock in
Fire it up hot (yeah)
[Chorus]
Blacktop blood in my veins
Lay it down straight
Lay it down plain
From dust and mud to a midnight lane
We build these bones you drive on every day
Cat tracks chew through rock
Yellow iron sings
Jaw locked
Day and night in the sparks and smoke
This is the life the white collars broke
[Verse 2]
Hand on the stick
Feel that dozer crawl
Foreman barking numbers
I’m carving out a haul road wall
Chainsaw laugh
On the tree line edge
Rollers hum behind me
Smooth it out
Pack that ledge
[Chorus]
Blacktop blood in my veins
Lay it down straight
Lay it down plain
From dust and mud to a midnight lane
We build these bones you drive on every day
Cat tracks chew through rock
Yellow iron sings
Jaw locked
Day and night in the sparks and smoke
This is the life the white collars broke
[Bridge]
Rain comes down
We don’t shut it down (no)
Headlights
Red eyes
Burning up another town
Hands all cracked
Back all sore
But I hit that throttle
‘Cause the road needs more (hey!)
[Chorus]
Blacktop blood in my veins
Lay it down straight
Lay it down plain
From dust and mud to a midnight lane
We build these bones you drive on every day
Cat tracks chew through rock
Yellow iron sings
Jaw locked
Day and night in the sparks and smoke
Blue collar heart
Paving every road you know
