Know You Down

LETRA

Know You Down

Swing a hammer, grab the dirt,
same day, different shirt.
television, golf carts,
dave marek is the boss.
save the house, burn the shed,
keep the bun, lose the bread
punch the clock and pay the boss
count your money, build your cross

coffee, coke, beer, a shot
same story different block.
sell the phone and mind the store
win the battle, lose the war
build the bridge and flood the dam
shear the sheep, milk the lamb
run for cover, keep the pace
william penn is losing face

you gotta fight for it
ride all night for it
steal and lie for it
live and die for it
you can't let them knock you down,
stand your ground,
just hang on

pull the lever, roll the dice,
smoke a stick of paradise
plug the meter, pay the rent
wonder where your money went
kick the mew, bite the dog
drive your car into the fog
pump the handle, lick the spoon
pray your day is coming soon

you gotta fight for it
ride all night for it
steal and lie for it
live and die for it
you can't let them knock you down,
stand your ground,
just hang on

oh knock you down,
stand your ground,
just hang on

when they wore you to the bone
know that you are not alone
when you hear the hurricane
dig a ditch and let it rain
when you hear the wrecking ball
lift your head, keep standing tall
when you feel the second swing
lift your voice and try to sing, try to sing

you gotta fight for it
ride all night for it
steal and lie for it
live and die for it
you can't let them knock you down,
stand your ground,
just hang on
