welder - tony logue lyrics

Loading...

i took a job welding on the second shift
down at the james shipyard
i come home dirty and i come home late
strip my clothes in the barn
by the time i crawl into bed
sara lynn is fast asleep
i kiss her on the neck and smell her hair
press my lips to her cheek

you know i hate the hours and i hate the work
but of late we’ve fell on tough times
work at the hall is all dried up
it’s left us rolling nickels and dimes
shipyard work ain’t worth a d*mn
it ain’t worth a d*mn at all
my heart tells me i can do better
but right now my back’s to the wall

[chorus]
and a man’s gotta do what a man’s gotta do
and for you babе i swore i would
take my hand darling and hold on tight
til we gеt back to good

you’re standing there in a gown of white
the man says for better or worse
if you’d known then what you know now
you’d probably run right out of the church
every night as i try to sleep
those same thoughts pierce my mind
i wake up my pillow soaking wet
while the baby we never had’s crying
[chorus]

i met a boy last night down on the dock
he told me had cash on hand
if i’d do one little favor for him
it’d get us out of this jam
there’s a line between right and wrong
there’s a choice somewhere in between
what i once saw as black and white
now looks kinda grey to me

[chorus]
