Work Hard, Play Harder

I work a double shift on Monday
Tuesday I get up before dawn
Wednesday pouring coffee
Thursday night I'm tending the bar
Well, when Friday night rolls around
I call my rowdy friends and we're honkytonk loud
I work hard, I play harder
I'm a good timin' American daughter
Redneck, blue collar
And I party down to my last dollar
I work hard, I work hard, I work hard
I play harder
I don't waste my time on
Manicures and spray on tans
And I don't pay no never mind
To the callouses I've worn on my hands
You know that people just can't understand how
I'm the first to clock in but the last to pass out
