I Earned It

See this tall cold beer I’m sipping on
Got eleven more when this one’s gone
And I earned it, damn right I earned it
After a 10 hour day, sweating for the man
6 goes to me, 4 to Uncle Sam
And I earned it, damn right I deserve it
You don’t get nothing for nothing, you get what you get
And the little that I got ain’t not accident
'Cause I’m a red, white, blue collared man
Two calloused hands and a cooler of cans
I’ve earned it, damn right I’ve earned it
Yeah when Friday rolls around, I get my pay
Sure I get a little loud, a little sideways
There ain’t a damn thing you can do or say
You know why? (Why?)
'Cause I earned it
When I roll up my sleeves, see your rolling your eyes
Ink on my skin, stars and the stripes
Freedom ain’t free, it came at a price
This is for the folks that proudly gave their lives
'Cause I’m a red, white, blue collared man
Two calloused hands and a cooler of cans
I’ve earned it, damn right I’ve earned it
Yeah when Friday rolls around, I get my pay
Sure I get a little loud, a little sideways
And there ain’t a damn thing you can do or say
You know why? (Why?)
'Cause I earned it
You don’t get nothing for nothing, you get what you get
And the little that I got ain’t not accident
'Cause I’m a red, white, blue collared man
Two calloused hands and a cooler of cans
I’ve earned it, damn right I’ve earned it
Yeah when Friday rolls around, I get my pay
Sure I get a little loud, a little sideways
And there ain’t a damn thing you can do or say
You know why? (Why?)
'Cause I’m a red, white, blue collared man
Two calloused hands and a cooler of cans
I’ve earned it, damn right I’ve earned it
Yeah when Friday rolls around, I get my pay
Sure I get a little loud, a little sideways
And there ain’t a damn thing you can do or say
You know why? (Why?)
'Cause I earned it
I’m a red, white, blue collared man
It’s all I’ll ever be
And I’m proud that I am
'Cause I earned it
