lyrics

Shoulder To The Wheel

Her day begins long before the dawn
Food’s on the table and the coffee’s on
Her kids are dressed and headed off to school
They know mama don’t play so don’t act the fool
Keys in hand her eyes on the prize
Always working…

(chorus)
Shoulder to the wheel
Stone by stone
Shoulder to the wheel
Stone by stone
Shoulder to the wheel
Stone by stone
Stone by stone

He loves the quiet of the rig at night
He checks the GPS by the pale moonlight
Six hours in five more to go
Miles and minutes the trucker’s load
The ribbon highway stretches without end
Each inch traveled…(chorus)

Since time has begun
The work of the world has been done
By those who rise to the task
Without fanfare or ego
With steadfast intention go
Shoulder to the wheel

We have the courage we have the will
To keep moving forward though it’s all uphill
The road is rocky the road is long
But our eyes are clear and our hearts are strong
There is nothing we cannot achieve
As long as we build…(chorus)
