Metin boyutu: ( + Büyült ) ( - Küçült)   

lyrics by Corb Lund and Mike Plume, music by Corb Lund





He's been roundin’ off bolts since the age of fourteen


Was that a five eighths or a nine sixteenths? 


He's got a metric socket that don't quite fit


Well it'll wiggle just a little but it ain’t quite stripped


The safety guard’s gone from his grinding machine


He got a stiff paint brush he only kinda got clean


He's the hired man, my neighbor and a cousin in law


He's a jerry riggin’ fool, he got the tool for the job





Well it's vise grips for pliers, and pliers for a wrench


A wrench for a hammer, hammers everything else


It just don’t seem to make much difference


I sure do like him but he’s hard on equipment


I sure like you son, but you’re hard on equipment





His corners ain’t square and his floor ain’t level


And he's always had trouble with the old tape measure


His doors don’t close ‘cause the jamb ain’t plumb


And he’s a Goddamn menace with an air nail gun


They love to see him comin’ at the lumberyard store


Fixed the leak in his roof with a two by four


Drilled holes in his boards with the wrong kinda bit


And when they don’t line up he blames the government





He got the whole front yard full of fix ‘em up cars


Three don’t run and the rest won’t start


Everything's fine with his rebuilt motor


Except of course for the couple spare parts left over


Baler wire tie downs goin’ down the road 


On two bald tires and an oversize load


He ain't never read a manual ‘cause that's like cheatin’


He don't mind a little grease on his hands while he's eatin’





He’s got busted up knuckles, his thumb got bruised


Jesus Christ was a carpenter, too
