Wrench and Ride

Clock—in hum and the break—room talk

Five long days, one busted clock

Paycheck thin, bills stack high

But Friday hits and the gears don't lie

Garage light buzzin', dust and oil

Hands get steady, sweat and toil

Chain's got slack, tires need air

Ain't fixed life, but I'll fix her there

Wrench and ride—just to feel alive

Shake off the week, let the steel revive

Grease on my knuckles, soul on the line

Work all week just to buy back time

Yeah, wrench and ride—my saving grace

Freedom smells like gas and space

I ain't rich, but I survive—

Wrench and ride

Phone bill's late, rent come due

Boss man grin, same old screw

Coffee cold, lunch gone cheap

Dreams parked deep where the shadows sleep

But that bike hums low like a heartbeat's truth

Old chrome mirror holds my youth

Gas light flares like a holy sign

Every spin worth the overtime

Wrench and ride—just to feel alive

Shake off the week, let the steel revive

Grease on my knuckles, soul on the line

Work all week just to buy back time

Yeah, wrench and ride—my saving grace

Freedom smells like gas and space

I ain't rich, but I survive—

Wrench and ride

Some folks pray, some drink their fill

I turn wrenches when the world stands still

Spark plug light and a busted tune

One good night under a working moon

Wrench and ride—just to feel alive

Shake off the week, let the steel revive

Grease on my knuckles, soul on the line

Work all week just to buy back time

Yeah, wrench and ride—my saving grace

Freedom smells like gas and space

Ain't no mansion, ain't no shrine—

Just me and her against the grind

Wrench and ride

Wrench and ride

Monday's coming, but tonight I'm fine
