Clock In to Songs About Working: Anthems for Every Job

**Chorus** Stand tall, yeah, we rise above it all, Through the fire and the rain, we never fall. We’re working with the light, with what we’ve been given, Finding peace in the fight, now we’re truly livin’. Oh, stand tall, no matter where we’ve been, Recognize the strength, yeah, it comes from within. We face the storm, but we find our way, Through the good and the struggle, we see brighter days. --- **Verse 1** We’ve been walking through the valleys, yeah, we’ve seen the night, But we rise with the sun, keeping love in sight. Through the hardship, we’ve grown, standing on solid ground, Every test we’ve faced, there’s strength we’ve found. Trevor’s learned to stand firm, break the chains of the past, Set those boundaries strong, now they’re built to last. Andy’s pushing through the noise, seeing the truth unfold, Breaking patterns in his life, yeah, he’s standing bold. --- **Pre-Chorus** No matter what they say, no matter what they do, We’re building from the roots, growing something true. Through adversity, we’ve learned to find our way, And the love we’ve planted grows stronger every day. --- **Chorus** **Verse 2** It’s a journey, every step we take, through the highs and lows, But we know that in the struggle, that’s where the good grows. Trevor’s seen the pain, but he’s built a life of love, Kept his family safe, with strength from above. Andy’s learned to see the light even when it’s dim, Breakin’ through the dark, yeah, he’s stronger from within. Together we rise, man, we face it with grace, In this life of patterns, we’ve found our place. --- **Bridge** Oh, the road’s been long, but we walk it strong, Finding hope in the struggle, where we belong. We’ve seen the patterns, now we know what’s right, Through the roots of resilience, we hold on tight. We give thanks for the blessings, for the lessons in the pain, ‘Cause every seed we’ve planted grows after the rain. Oh, we stand together, yeah, side by side, With the good in our hearts, we rise with pride. **Chorus** **Outro** We keep standing strong, with love in our hearts, Through the twists and the turns, we make a new start. We recognize the power, yeah, the peace we’ve found, Through every storm, man, we’re still standing sound. So stand tall, rise high, never let it fade, In the roots of our journey, that’s where the strength is made.

[Verse] Morning fog rolls in the hills, in the Smoky Mountains’ shroud, The day begins in shadows, where the quiet speaks so loud, Rooms are trashed and torn apart, just like my weary soul, Cleaning up the wreckage takes its heavy toll. [Verse 2] There's hair clogging up the sinks, remnants of a night's disdain, Toilets lined with filth, in this endless, dirty game, Each canvas tent a battleground, fought with fire every night, I’m sweeping up the ashes in the early morning light. [Chorus] Oh, the Smoky Mountains’ tears, they fall down like the rain, I’m working through the hardship, feeling every ounce of pain, This housekeeper’s lament, in the shadow of these peaks, Living day by day, with a soul that loudly speaks. [Verse 3] Underneath the canvas, beneath the pretty stars, It’s a nightmare in the daylight, hidden behind the scars, Floorboards creak with memories of travesties and fights, As I sweep up all the remnants from the guests' forgotten nights. [Verse 4] In the fields of white linen, where my dreams have turned to dust, I scrub away the sorrows with every single thrust, Each new day dawns a struggle, in the misty mountain air, Just a housekeeper’s life, tangled in despair. [Bridge] Every sweep and scrub, another piece of broken glass, Time erodes my spirit, just another day to pass, Living in the shadows of these ancient smoky woods, Dreams of escape lost, never understood.

[Verse] She was working nights at Casey's, chicken grease and grits, Dreamin’ 'bout a love, senseless trips and moonlit skits. Mixin’ soda, thinkin’ cold nights, future so lit, Love that goes the extra mile, yeah, let's commit. [Chorus] Out that Casey’s, make a new wave, Future so bright, breakin’ that daze. Rollin’ with ambition, no slow phase, Ready for the glow up, days upon days. [Verse 2] From cash register clicks to dreams that flicker, Heartbeat beats quicker, figures getting thicker. Serving up the night shift but her goals way bigger, Destiny’s a picture, gonna get that glitter. [Chorus] Out that Casey’s, make a new wave, Future so bright, breakin’ that daze. Rollin’ with ambition, no slow phase, Ready for the glow up, days upon days. [Verse 3] Flippin' the tables, no longer the night server, Plottin' her ascent as the universe observer. Manifesting night blues into something ultra fervor, Passing every test, dreams never a deserter. [Chorus] Out that Casey’s, make a new wave, Future so bright, breakin’ that daze. Rollin’ with ambition, no slow phase, Ready for the glow up, days upon days.

[Verse] Wake up, caffeine hit, I'm rocket fuel City lights, dizzy nights, I'm breakin' rules Hustle hard, grind the gears, no room for fools Cash rings, diamond bling, kings with the jewels [Verse 2] Game face, city chase, gotta move quick Bright minds, sharp rhymes, magic trick Crowns play, Henny spray, swishes flick Deep breath, next step, dive in thick [Chorus] Fling! Sky high, dreams ain't no sling Race fast, outlast, hear the world sing Champions, everyone, life on a string Fling! Top shelf, feel the bling [Verse 3] Bass thump, heart jump, time to conquer Empire, desire, gotta go bonkers Money stacks, heart attacks, no slow walkers Big deals, power wheels, city talkers [Verse 4] Nightfall, street calls, neon glow Heavy beat, quick feet, rapid flow Networking, hard-working, never slow Rule hard, play the card, show the glow [Chorus] Fling! Sky high, dreams ain't no sling Race fast, outlast, hear the world sing Champions, everyone, life on a string Fling! Top shelf, feel the bling

[Verse] Down in Barbacena, where the sun always shines, I found a candidate who's one of a kind, Raquel's the name, and she's got my heart, When it comes to change, she's ready to start. [Chorus] A Raquel gente boa, a Raquel est no ar, Treze zero treze, she's the shining star, Gonna vote for Raquel, make Barbacena bright, With her leading the way, we can see the light! [Verse 2] Every street and corner, every smile she meets, Raquel’s out there working, walking through the heat, She’s got dreams and plans as big as the sky, With Treze zero treze, we’re reaching so high. [Chorus] A Raquel gente boa, a Raquel est no ar, Treze zero treze, she's the shining star, Gonna vote for Raquel, make Barbacena bright, With her leading the way, we can see the light! [Bridge] She’s the voice of the people, the pride of the land, With Raquel on our side, we’ll all take a stand, No more waiting, change is here and now, Let’s give Barbacena the lift with a bow. [Verse 3] From the hills to the rivers, from the farms to the town, Raquel’s the one who won’t let us down, Treze zero treze, remember that call, She’s fighting for us, she’s giving it all.

[Verse] In the heart of Clara Town, where the road meets the bar, Old Jack strums his six-string, underneath the stars, Streetlights flicker, casting shadows on the ground, From the cafe to the church, it's the talk of the town. [Verse 2] Down on Maple Avenue, Mrs. Green waters plants, Kids playing hopscotch, dogs doing their dance, Tractors rolling by, dust clouds in the air, It's a simple life here, but we got love to spare. [Chorus] Clara Town streets, where the stories are told, From sun-up to sun-down, watching life unfold, With a two-step rhythm and a honky-tonk beat, We're dancing through the nights on Clara Town streets. [Verse 3] The diner’s packed at noon with the working crew, Some sipping on sweet tea, and others on the brew, Country tunes on the jukebox, setting the tone, We may be small, but this town sure feels like home. [Bridge] When the moon rises high, and the crickets start to sing, We gather 'round the bonfire, let the banjo ring, Telling tales of yesteryears, both the highs and the lows, In Clara Town, my friend, that’s just how life goes. [Verse 4] Sunday morning sermons, the bells peal in the air, Miss Daisy’s apple pie cooling by the stair, Farmers in their overalls, shaking hands, saying grace, In Clara Town, every day we find our place.

[Verse] Billy from Saint Joe, Texas, works hard every single day, He's up before the sunrise, no time to waste away. He's got calloused hands from labor, and a fire in his soul, But there's one thing that grinds him—lazy folks who take it slow. [Verse 2] He plows the fields from dawn till dark, never stops for rest, Says a man's worth is measured by the sweat upon his chest. Drives his old Ford truck through the dirt roads of his town, Billy's got no patience for folks who just lie down. [Chorus] Billy from Saint Joe Texas, ain't no room for lazy bones, He's got no time for slackers, just working to the bone. He says, "Get up and get movin', there's a day to be won," Billy’s life motto's simple: "Work hard 'til the work's all done." [Verse 3] In the evening at the roadhouse, he’ll enjoy a beer or two, But you won't catch him sleeping in when morning breaks anew. He's the first to lend a helping hand, if you got the will, But if you’re just a-draggin', well, you got a bitter pill. [Verse 4] Billy's old-school country, raised on hard-earned grit, He's got no use for people who just wanna sit and quit. He’s a man of simple values, truth and dignity, If you're not pulling your own weight, he’s got no sympathy. [Chorus] Billy from Saint Joe Texas, ain't no room for lazy bones, He's got no time for slackers, just working to the bone. He says, "Get up and get movin', there's a day to be won," Billy’s life motto's simple: "Work hard 'til the work's all done."

[Hook 1] Look for the bare necessities The simple bare necessities Forget about your worries and your strife I mean the bare necessities Old Mother Nature's recipes That brings the bare necessities of life [Verse:] Wherever I wander, wherever I roam I couldn't be fonder of my big home The bees are buzzin' in the tree To make some honey just for me When you look under the rocks and plants And take a glance at the fancy ants Then maybe try a few [Interlude 1] (You eat ants! ?) Haha, you better believe it You're going to love the way they tickle (Mowgli, watch out!) [Bridge:] The bare necessities of life will come to you They'll come to you! [Hook 2] Look for the bare necessities The simple bare necessities Forget about your worries and your strife I mean the bare necessities That's why a bear can rest at ease With just the bare necessities of life [Verse 2:] Now when you pick a pawpaw Or a prickly pear And you prick a raw paw Next time beware Don't pick the prickly pear by the paw When you pick a pear Try to use the claw But you don't need to use the claw When you pick a pear of the big pawpaw [Interlude 2] Have I given you a clue? (Golly, thanks Baloo!) (Pawpaw, hah! Of all the silly gibberish) C'mon Baggy, get with the beat! [Bridge:] The bare necessities of life will come to you They'll come to you! [Verse 3:] So just try and relax, yeah cool it Fall apart in my backyard Cause let me tell you something little britches If you act like that bee acts, uh uh You're working too hard [Verse 4] And don't spend your time lookin' around For something you want that can't be found When you find out you can live without it And go along not thinkin' about it I'll tell you something true [Bridge:] The bare necessities of life will come to you They'll come to you!

Verse 1: That pregnant girl working the checkout line I bet I’ve seen her a hundred times I pay my bill without a single word That homeless guy on 3rd and main How many times have I looked away but today, something in my heart began to stir Pre-Chorus: I remembered words my daddy said don’t judge the cover unless you’ve read someone else’s story… take the time… Walk a mile Chorus: A mile’s not as far as it seems A simple smile, a kind “hello” just to let someone know they’ve been seen We all live such busy lives but what if we all took the time… to stop and hear that stranger’s story just a little while… What a better world this would be if you and me Would walk a mile
