verse 1:
F#
I've seen them out at soco, they're pounding sixteen penny nails
The truckers on the interstate have been known to ride the rails
The sweat is beating on the brow can't keep these fellas down
'Cause those damned blue-collared tweekers are runnin' this here town

verse 2:
F#
I knew a man who hung drywall, he hung it mighty quick
A trip or two to the blue room, would help him do the trick
His foreman would pat him on the back, whenever he would come around
'Cause these dammed blue-collar tweekers are beloved in this here town

Now the union boys are there to protect us from all the corporate type
While Curious George's drug patrol is out here hunting snipe
Now they try to tell me different, but you know i ain't no clown
'Cause those damned blue-collar tweekers are the backbone of this town

F#
Now the flame that burns twice as bright, burns only half as long
My eyes are growing weary as i finalize this song
So sit back and have a cup o' joe and watch the wheels go round
