Here's to Ya, Roger

Let That Poor Boy Sing

Here's to Ya, Roger

Well, my tailpipe, it was draggin', and my brakes would barely stop

So I pulled my old pickup in this automotive shop

I said, 'I'd like an estimate' to what appeared to be the boss

Then I sat down in the lobby, afraid to find out what it'd cost

The this guy said, 'Follow me, sir,' his arms all greasy black

He had his name stitched on his pocket, he had my truck up on the rack

He said, You need all four brake shoes, and your muffler's rotted out

But I overheard how broke you were, so I'll try to keep it down


Chorus:

Here's to ya, Roger, and your two hard working hands

With dirt under your fingernails, you're the backbone of this land

And I know you'll keep me runnin'long as you can find the part

So here's to ya Roger, and your true blue collar heart


Well, he struck up a conversation as he set his hands to work

He cussed a bloody knuckle, then he called his boss a jerk

He said, 'We're supposed to get the most from the customers we can

And by the way, what do you do? You look like you're in a band'

Well, I told him I wrote songs, and he said, 'Man that's really cool'

And he got real excited and he put down his power tool

He said, 'You may not believe this, but I once met Brenda Lee'

Started whistling one of her songs

And said, I'll do the muffler free


Chorus


Well, as my truck descended, I went inside to pay the bill

He said, 'Don't bring up the muffler or he'll fire me sure as hell'

Back outside, I thanked him and I was down the road and gone

And I sure hope he don't lose his job when his boss man hears this song


Chorus
