You want a picture of America
It's good folks goin' to work 
Bleedin' blood, sweat, and tears on a blue collar shirt
Bring home the bacon, fry it in a skillet
Got a hunger in our bellies and we can't fill it
Make a little love to heal some of the hurt
Good folks goin' to work 

Pipeline boys and construction crews 
Thank God for the men and women in blue
Just good folks goin' to work 

Through the rain, sleet, and snow
They're carryin' mail to the preachers, the teachers
And the sheriff in jail
Just good folks goin' to work 

They're just good folks goin' to work 
Blood, sweat, and tears on a blue collar shirt
Bring home the bacon, fry it in a skillet
Got a hunger in our bellies and we can't fill it
You want a picture of America 
Land of the dreams, come and get you some
And when the morning comes we're 
Just good folks goin' to work 

They give you a shot of Penicillin 
Rescue you from a burnin' buildin'
Just good folks goin' to work 
Plantin' up the field, keepin' people fed
Writin' down the songs for the crazy in your head
Just good folks goin' to work 

They're just good folks goin' to work 
Blood, sweat, and tears on a blue collar shirt
Bring' home the bacon, fry it in a skillet
Got a hunger in our bellies and we can't fill it
You want a picture of America
Land of the dreams, come and get you some
And when the morning comes we're 
Just good folks goin' to work 

Yeah, they graduate from high school 
And they go to war and our freedom
Yeah, that's what they're fightin' for 
And in a flash of light life disappears 
And a flag is covered by a mother's tears

It ain't who we ain't
It's who we are 
Under fifty stars and thirteen bars
Bringin' home the bacon, fry it in a skillet
Got a hunger in our bellies and we can't fill it
You want a picture of America
Land of the dreams, come and get you some
And when the morning comes we're 
Just good folks goin' to work 
Yeah, good folks goin' to work
