The Dirt Drifters - Name On My Shirt Lyrics
My old man, pick me upEvery day at half past fourI'd hid behind that old schoolWaiting on his flat BedfordI'd climb up in that cabWith someone I didn't wanna beThe true blue collared manPutting in my time at workYears written on my handsA blessing and a curseEveryday looking olderCovered up in grease and dirtWhole world upon my shouldersWith my name on my shirtTouching clocks, raising kidsIt's all there is in all these timesTurned eighteen, turned my backPacked my bags and headed outThen I didn't think I couldTo make sure I'd never beThe true blue collared manPutting in my time at workYears written on my handsA blessing and a curseEveryday looking olderCovered up in grease and dirtWhole world upon my shouldersWith my name on my shirtYou get and you see things differentlyAll that matters now is working for my familyI wonder if they'd be proudIf they could see me nowThe true blue collared manPutting in my time at workYears written on my handsA blessing and a curseEveryday looking olderCovered up in grease and dirtWhole world upon my shouldersWith my name on my shirtI got my name on my shirtMy name on my shirtName on my shirt
