Lyrics
I Hear A Beer
(Hey, did you hear something?)
It?s 4:55, Friday afternoon
This long hard week will be history soon
No more pulling my weight carrying the load
Get the tools in the truck, get the truck on the road
I?ve had all I can stand of this blue-collar game
Cause I hear a beer and it?s calling my name.
I?ve been good all week
Working way too hard
Racking up hours
On my over-time card
But I?m clocking out
And everythings about to change
Cause I hear a beer,
And it?s calling my name.
My wife works hard, she understands
She?ll be at the door, two Buds in her hand
We had a rough week, but it?s time to unwind
Leave all of the day to day work behind
Thank goodness that old weekend?s finally came
Cause I hear a beer and it?s calling my name.
I?ve been good all week
Working way too hard
Racking up hours
On my over-time card
But I?m clocking out
And everythings about to change
Cause I hear a beer,
And it?s calling my name.
{Hey, Bud is that you?)
Friends coming over, steaks on the grill
Longnecks on ice and they?re starting to chill
Monday morning, that old grind starts again
We?ll be living in weekend mode until then.
I?ve been good all week
Working way too hard
Racking up hours
On my over-time card.
If I?m dragging Monday
I?ll know who?s to b lame
Cause I hear a beer
And it?s calling my name.
Yeah, I hear a beer
and it?s calling my name
