My old man worked hard 'till the day he died Never had much money but we got by He drove Fords and Chevrolets, went to church on Sundays In hard time, small town USA He was red, white and blue collar, Cut from the same mold as his father Workin' hard just to earn a dollar Red, White and Blue Collar I got a friend who lives next-door to me And we both work down at the same old factory A better man you'd never find, he'd give me his very last dime It don't matter his skin's not the same as mine Cause he was red, white and blue collar Cut from the same mold as our fathers Workin' hard just to earn a dollar Red, White and Blue Collar When I think of those callused hands That sowed the fabric of this great land With a thread of freedom, I'm proud I am Red, white, and blue collar Cut from the same mold as my father Workin' hard just to earn a dollar Red, white and blue Red, white, and blue collar Cut from the same mold as our fathers Workin' hard just to earn a dollar Red, white and blue collar
