If you're driving them nails
Or driving them trucks
Hauling them bails and stacking 'em up
Till the sun goes down
Or till it comes back around
If you're selling them boots
Or selling them cars
Or paying your dues playing guitar
Til' closing time downtown
Then you know what I'm talking about
Hard work sucks but it bought this beer
I'm turning up
And it tastes just right right now
Been a long day, long week
Too much stress and no damn sleep
And it's high time I wind down
Been hitting it harder than ever
But hard work makes beer taste better
If you're sweating in ties
Or sweating in scrubs
Saving them lives
Or facing some judge
To earn that cash you make
Well, I bet you could use a break
If you're fighting them fires
Or fighting them crimes
Or fighting for freedom across enemy lines
You've damn sure earned your pay
Yeah, and you deserve a raise
Hard work sucks but it bought this beer
I'm turning up
And it tastes just right right now
Been a long day, long week
Too much stress and no damn sleep
And it's high time I wind down
Been hitting it harder than ever
But hard work makes beer taste better
Yeah, hard work sucks
But you know what
It bought my house
And bought my truck
And it'll buy me one more round
Hard work sucks but it bought this beer
I'm turning up
And it tastes just right, right now
Been a long day, long week
Too much stress and no damn sleep
And it's high time I wind down
Been hitting it harder than ever
But hard work makes beer taste better
Yeah, hard work makes beer taste better
Haha, y'all know I'm right
