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)
