Aaron Tippin - Working Man's Ph.d. lyrics

Toss a lunch box into a pickup truck

A long hard day sure ain't much fun

But you gotta get it started if you wanna get it done

Just set your mind and roll up your sleeves

You're workin' on a working man's PH.D.

With your hear and your hands and the sweat on your brow

You build the things that really make the world go 'round

If it works, if it runs, if it lasts for years

You can bet your bottom dollar it was made right here

With pride and honor and dignity

From a man with a working man's PH.D.

Well, there ain't no shame in a job well done

From driving a nail to driving a truck

As a matter of fact, I'd like to set things straight

A few more people should be pullin' their weight

If you want a cram course in reality

You get yourself a working man's PH.D.

When the quittin' whistle blosw and the dust settles down

There ain't not trophies or cheering crowds

You'll face yourself at the end of the day

And be damned proud of whatever you've made

Can't hang it on the wall for teh world to see

But you got yourself a working man's PH.D.

Well, there ain't no shame in a job well done

From driving a nail to driving a truck

As a matter of fact, I'd like to set things straight

A few more people should be pullin' their weight

If you want a cram course in reality

You get yourself a working man's PH.D
