Quittin' Time

This labor I've been doin' ain't got no reason or rhyme

And I can't hardly wait for it to finally be quittin' time

And I've been pushin' steel through a run down rust belt plant

And I can't wait to head on home, so I can take my gal to dance

How I'll take my gal to dance

Oh, I'll take my gal to dance

The desert sure is hot and we've been workin' through the days

I pray I get back to my lovin' lady's gaze

Rifle in my hand and some brothers to my side

I can't hardly wait for it to finally be quittin' time

Oh, I pray it'll be quittin' time

Oh, one day it'll be quittin' time

Quittin' time's on my mind

But her kind eyes are on my heart

I've been sweatin' for my wages

But she'll cool me after dark

How she'll cool me after dark

I know she'll cool me after dark

And I've been roofin' houses atop of homes I can't afford

But I'm savin' all my pennies and I'm prayin' to the Lord

One day, we'll make it through all this barely gettin' by

I'm takin' out my woman and we're dancin' barefoot tonight

Quittin' time's on my mind

But her kind eyes are on my heart

I've been sweatin' for my wages

But she'll cool me after dark

How she'll cool me after dark

Oh, she'll cool me after dark
