Lyrics
Diesel and Dust
Yeah we’re on the job way before the sunrise
A hard day ahead with a whole lotta long miles
Running heavy metal down this road
And the world won’t turn if the wheels don’t roll
So I’ll, buckle in grab a gear and go
Diesel and dust diesel and dust
Everyday we’re moving mountains no there ain’t no job too tough
This land was built with the strength of folks like us
With diesel and dust diesel and dust
A little dirt and grease makes a good clean living
Pounding the ground cause the Lord knows I’m driven
Got a family that’s got my back
So I do what it takes to bring home the cash
Yeah I’m pedal down rollin’ right on track
(Repeat Chorus/Bridge)
Dawn past dusk through the dry and the mud no there ain’t no road too too rough
The grit is the fuel inside my blood c’mon lets crank it up
Diesel and dust diesel and dust
We’re the backbone of this country there’s nothing we can’t get done
Diesel and dust diesel and dust
Everyday we’re moving mountains no there ain’t no job too tough
This land was built with the sweat of folks like us
With Diesel and dust, diesel and dust, diesel and dust diesel and dust
Huh, Huh, Huh, Huh
