[ Featuring The Del McCoury Band ]
He's up at morning at the crack of dawn
His high top shoes and his Levis on
He eats ham and egg and biscuit bread
He's in the woods time the sun gets red
He's a chain saw log skiddin' tree climbing, limb dodging truck driving ?rough old loggin' man
His skin is leather, has a steel backbone,
He's stubborn as a mule and twice as strong
He'll cut a hundred trees in an hour if he can
He won't back down he's a heck of a man
He's a chain saw log skiddin tree climbing, limb dodging truck driving rough ol' loggin man
He works in the sun and the rain and snow
He works in the winter when the cold wind blows
The reason why he works hard all week long
Is his little wife is waiting for his pay back home.
