Alan Jackson Hard Hat and a Hammer Lyrics

Just the same 3 chords over and over.
(Intro) D G A (2x)
Laced up boots,faded jeans.
Homemade sandwich, and half a jug of tea.
Average joe, average pay.
Same old end, same old day.
(Chorus)
But there's nothin' wrong with a hard hat and hammer.
That kind of glue that sticks this world together.
Hands of steel, and cradle of the promised land...
A (let it ring out)
God bless the workin' man.
All week long, making a livin'.
Life keeps taking, he keeps giving
Behind the scene, below the grade
Hardly noticed but part of everything
(Chorus)
But there's nothing wrong with a hard hat and a hammer
Kind of glue that sticks this world together
Hands of steel and cradle of the Promised Land
A (let it ring out)
God bless the working man
(Solo) D G A (3x)
He gives his life then fades away
Another young man takes his place
Average Joe, average pay
Same ol end, same old' day
(Chorus)
But there's nothing wrong with a hard hat and a hammer
Kind of glue that sticks this world together
Hands of steel and cradle of the Promised Land
No, there's nothing wrong with a hard hat and a hammer
Kind of glue that sticks this world together
Hands of steel and cradle of the Promised Land
A (let it ring out)
God bless the working man
D G A (3x) To the next verse
The working man
Oh, the working man and woman
