  • White knuckles on a hammer
    Out swingin' in the sun, I've been there
    On a tractor in the summer
    Sweat rollin' down the back of that shirt
    You work your ass off for a dollar
    Puttin' new wrinkles on a blue collar
    Hoe-in the row y'all
    Till the weekend then we really start kickin' up dirt

    Keepin' our boots on American throttle
    Drinkin' our beer from American bottles
    Up for the job and down for the hustle
    Gettin' it down with America muscle

    Gimme some blacktop so I can spread them
    Wing on the hood of that Trans Am
    And a sweet thing ridin' shottie
    That's why God made the open road

    Keepin' our boots on American throttle
    Drinkin' our beer from American bottles
    Grippin' the wheel with some white in your knuckles
    And ridin' around in American muscle

    Yeah, we make it, we spend it, we love it
    We live it we see what we want, we go get it

    Hey Mr. Fender, thanks for the memories
    You set the world on fire with six strings
    We got 'em plugged in, we got 'em turned up
    From garages to the Madison Square

    Keepin' our boots on American throttle
    Drinkin' our beer from American bottles
    Gimme some Stevie, some Double Trouble
    Rockin' the house with American muscle

    Keepin' our boots on American throttle
    Drinkin' our beer from American bottles
    Up for the job and down for the hustle
    Gettin' it down with American muscle
