Karaoké Hard Hat and a Hammer Alan Jackson

Lace-up boots and faded jeans

A homemade sandwich and a half a jug of tea

Average Joe

Average pay

Same old end

Same old day

But there's nothin' 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

God bless the workin' man

All week long makin' a livin'

Life keeps takin' and he keeps givin'

Behind the scene

Below the grade

Hardly noticed but part of everything

But there's nothin' 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

God bless the workin' man

He gives his life then fades away

Another young man takes his place

Average Joe

Average pay

Same old end

Same old day

But there's nothin' 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 nothin' 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

God bless the workin' man

The workin' man

Oh the workin' man

And woman
