Title: “Hands Like Mine” [Verse 1] Sun ain’t up but the coffee’s hot Steel toes by the backdoor mat Saw dust drifting through the morning light Another long day and I’m good with that Mill whistle crying, engines roar Grease on my jeans, sweat on the floor Splinters and sparks, I’ve worn ’em proud Built my whole life from the ground [Pre-Chorus] Every scar tells a story Every ache reminds Why I’m out here chasing daylight With these hands like mine [Chorus] These hands built race cars in a gravel drive Lifted trucks that rumble like they’re born to fly Turned wrenches late under shop light glow Made a little money on the side when the bills ran slow Worked them down to the bone, but I’d do it again For the woman I love and the kids we’re raising If heaven’s just a front porch and their laughter in the wind Then I’m the richest man that’s ever been [Verse 2] Friday nights with a busted knuckle Tuning carbs till the headers rumble Neighbors shaking when we fire it up But my boy’s eyes light like a million bucks Saturday job fixing brakes in town Cash in a jar so the lights stay on Not chasing fame, not chasing gold Just building a life that we can hold [Pre-Chorus] Her smile’s worth every overtime Every mile, every grind When she says she’s proud of me Man, that’s my finish line [Chorus] These hands built race cars in a gravel drive Lifted trucks that rumble like they’re born to fly Turned wrenches late under shop light glow Made a little money on the side when the bills ran slow Worked them down to the bone, but I’d do it again For the woman I love and the kids we’re raising If heaven’s just a front porch and their laughter in the wind Then I’m the richest man that’s ever been [Bridge] I don’t need a mansion on a hill Don’t need a name in lights Just her hand in mine at supper time And the porch light shining bright One day these arms might slow down But this love won’t ever bend Everything I am, everything I’ve done Is for them [Final Chorus – Bigger] These hands built more than steel and chrome Built a place that my babies call home Built a life from sweat and prayer And a woman’s love that’s always there Yeah I’ve worked them down to the bone, and I’d do it again For the life we’re living and the shape we’re in If heaven’s just right here where we stand Then I’m a blessed, blessed man [Outro] Saw dust settles, engines sleep She leans in close, says “Come to bed.” I kiss her soft, thank the Lord above For this hard-earned life we’ve built with love.

Hands like mine
