Wake Up Call

Driving to the city chasing dollar dreams

Tires hum the highway bursting at the seams

Morning coffee's bitter like the boss's tone

Clock ticks slow while I work my bones

But hey hey

You're grinning like you've won the game

Hey hey

This ain't a spark it's just a flame

If you got a smile on your face when my back's against the wall

Here's your wake up call here's your wake up call

Every grind every groan every stumble every fall

Here's your wake up call wake up call

Faking friendly handshakes with the office crew

Lies behind the laughter nothing really new

My cubicle's a cage but I'm still a bird

Singing under pressure every single word

So hey hey

Think you've got the upper hand

Hey hey

This is where I'll make my stand

Every day I work my fingers to the bone

Hell yeah just trying to get back home

My sweet little baby's keeping me in check

That way, I'll never grab you by your neck

I never look back once I get in my truck

I cross the county line like I don't give a fuck cause headed back to the country

If you got a smile on your face when my back's against the wall

Here's your wake up call here's your wake up call

Every grind every groan every stumble every fall

Here's your wake up call wake up call
