Well it's 9pm, four hours of overtime

I'm not working my way up the corporate ladder

Just a hard hat on the line, I'm just a hard hat on the line

Well I'm dog tired and draggin

But I'm gettin my second wind

These boots were made for dancin

And kickin back with friends

Loadin dock, punch the clock

Crank the truck, kickin dust

Gonna paint th whole town red

I ought to put these tired old bones to bed

But I'm livin it up

I can sleep when I'm dead

Time's way too short

They ain't makin anymore

I'm havin fun

My workin day is done

I ought to put these tired bones to bed

But I'm livin it up

I can sleep when I'm dead

I know a place that's open all night

They got a sawdust floor and flashing neon light

They got a flashing neon light

they got a flashing neon light

They know me cause I'm sure there alot

And nobody takes my favorite parking spot

Loadin dock, punch the clock

Crank the the truck, kickin dust

Gonna paint the whole town red

I ought to put these tired old bones to bed

But I'm livin it up

I can sleep when I'm dead

Time's way too short

They ain't makin anymore

I'm havin fun

My working day is done

Time's way too short

They ain't makin anymore

I'm havin fun

My workin day is done

I ought to put these tired bones to bed

But I'm livin it up

I can sleep when I'm dead

I ought to put these tired old bones to bed

But I'm livin it up

I can sleep when I'm dead

I ought to put these tired old bones to bed

But I'm livin it up

I can sleep when I'm dead

I'm livin it up

I can sleep when I'm dead

I;m livin it up

I can sleep when I'm dead

Livin it up

Livin it up

Livin it up

I can sleep when I'm dead
