lyrics

I come from a small town
Where they roll up all the sidewalks
Every day at 5:00PM

Every Sunday we save
All the bastards and the Baptists
And Monday we start sinning again

We hit the snooze, fall out of bed,
And go to work,
Each day nearly the same as the last

You punch the clock, pick up the kids,
And grab some food, hey,
Life is really kicking our ass

But we rock on
Rock on

Out in the fields it's
Getting hot in Carolina
But Friday night has finally come

Crank up the music
And bob your head 'long to the beat
Grab a drink, we're gonna have us some fun

What'd you say?
I hear the bass thumping
What's you say?
We're waiting on ya'll
What'd you say?
We'll have this field jumping
We're gonna throw a Dirty South ball

Hey, rock on x 4

Monday morning sneaks up
On us like a cancer
Time to make your money again

Folks running 'round here
Like a question with no answer
It's been that way since I don't know when

Five days a week we
Do our jobs and fake a smile
Busting ass all over this town

By Friday night we've had
'Bout all that we can stand
And all we want to do is throw down

What'd you say?
I hear the bass thumping
What'd you say?
We're waiting on ya'll
What'd you say?
We'll have this field jumping
We're gonna throw a Dirty South ball

Rock on
Carolina, rock on
Everybody, rock on
Hey, rock on
