Five o′clock
I wake up running
Get up boy
It's time to go
Out the door
Kiss your honey
Gotta get it, get it
Get it while the gettin′s good

The eagle flies and
The world goes round
I'm just doing my job
The eagle dies and
The world turns brown
Mother Earth has got a broken heart
Oh, can you feel the grind?

Why does the rain burn my eyes
When it's falling?
Is that hole in the sky
Gonna keep on growing?
Did you really think
No one would know?

Crank′em up
Keep on runnin
16 million diesels on the fly
Make the goods
Keep on rollin
Profit margins on the rise
Dump the waste
Right in the water
The Pigeon River′s running black
It's not my fault and
I should not have to worry
Let them hippies do it
They ain′t got a job

Ooh
Why does the rain burn my eyes
When it's falling?
Is that hole in the sky
Gonna keep on growing?
Did you really think
No one would know?

Why does the rain burn my eyes
When it′s falling?
Is that hole in the sky
Gonna keep on growing?
Did you really think
No one would know?
