Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Alarm rings dark and early
Coffee steam
Boots on the floor
Thermos filled
Kiss by the doorway
Tail lights fade
I'm gone once more
[Chorus]
I'm up before the sun comes up
Chasing down another day
Hands worn out but my heart's filled up
With the bills I know I’m gonna pay
Clock runs ‘round
I don’t slow down
Still rolling when the sky turns brown
Up before the sun comes up
Home after the sun goes down
[Verse 2]
High-vis vest and a hard hat halo
Steel dust stuck in my sleeves
Sandwich wrapped in last week’s paper
Eat fast
Wipe off on my jeans
[Chorus]
I'm up before the sun comes up
Chasing down another day
Hands worn out but my heart's filled up
With the bills I know I’m gonna pay
Clock runs ‘round
I don’t slow down
Still rolling when the sky turns brown
Up before the sun comes up
Home after the sun goes down
[Bridge]
Radio low on the drive back home
Red dirt roads and a tired old soul (yeah)
See that porch light shining through
That’s my raise
That’s my view
[Chorus]
I'm up before the sun comes up
Chasing down another day
Hands worn out but my heart's filled up
When I hear my kids laugh and play
Clock runs ‘round
I don’t slow down
Still rolling ‘til the stars come out
Up before the sun comes up
Home after the sun goes down (oh yeah)

Style
Driving country rock with crunchy Telecasters, steady four-on-the-floor kick, and warm male vocals. Verses stay tight and story-driven over a chugging rhythm guitar; chorus explodes with stacked harmonies and a brighter lead line. Big open chords in the hook, a simple sing-along melody, and a short, twangy lead lick between sections keep the energy high while bass and drums lock in like a long haul on the highway.
