Lyrics
Intro
Guitar riff with DJ scratch accent
Verse 1
Monday morning, punched my card
Same old station, same work yard
Twenty years at station nine
Drawing breath between the lines
Watch the younger guys come in
With their talk of what might've been
But I know what gets things done
When the day has just begun
Pre-chorus
Every callus, every scar
Shows exactly who you are
Chorus
These hands don't lie about the life I've lived
These hands don't try to hide what they can give
Ooooh, every single day
These hands keep making their way
Post-chorus
(Making their way, making their way)
DJ scratch accent
Verse 2
Computer screens keep multiplying
Hear the old-timers sighing
But I just keep my head down low
'Cause there's one thing that I know
Can't replace the human touch
When the going gets too tough
Metal breaks and wires fail
That's when real work tips the scale
Pre-chorus
Every morning, every night
Doing what I know is right
Chorus
These hands don't lie about the life I've lived
These hands don't try to hide what they can give
Ooooh, every single day
These hands keep making their way
Bridge
Sometimes late at night I wonder
If this place will still be here
But as long as there's work to do
I'll be standing right here
Building intensity
Verse 3
They say the future's coming fast
But some things are built to last
Like the pride in honest work
And the strength that others shirk
In my bones and in my blood
Through the grease and through the mud
Every piece I help create
Builds tomorrow's better days
Chorus
These hands don't lie about the life I've lived
These hands don't try to hide what they can give
Ooooh, every single day
These hands keep making their way
Outro
These hands... don't lie
(These hands keep working)
These hands... don't lie
Final guitar riff with DJ scratch fade
