Aaron Tippin - Working Man's Ph. D. Lyrics
(aaron tippin/bobby boyd/philip douglas)You get up every morning fore the sun comes upToss a lunchbox into a pickup truckA long, hard day sure aint much funBut youve gotta get it started if you wanna get it doneYou set your mind and roll up your sleevesYoure workin on a working mans ph.d.With your heart in your hands and the sweat on your browYou build the things that really make the world go aroundIf it works, if it runs, if it lasts for yearsYou bet your bottom dollar it was made right hereWith pride, honor and dignityFrom a man with a working mans ph.d.Now there aint no shame in a job well doneFrom driving a nail to driving a truckAs a matter of fact Id like to set things straightA few more people should be pullin their weightIf you wanna cram course in realityYou get yourself a working mans ph.d.When the quittin whistle blows and the dust settles downThere aint no trophies or cheering crowdsYoull face yourself at the end of the dayAnd be damn proud of whatever youve madeCant hang it on the wall for the world to seeBut youve got yourself a working mans ph.d.Now there aint no shame in a job well doneFrom driving a nail to driving a truckAs a matter of fact Id like to set things straightA few more people should be pullin their weightIf you wanna cram course in realityYou get yourself a working mans ph.d.
