Nothing to Rely On

Biting on rebar, cinder block mind
Time was on his side until it made him unkind
The filth of his work has now settled on his heart
His company is doing well, but it’s tearing him apart
Nothing to rely on
You got to get inside of him
Standing up, standing tall, now he’s falling down
Thanking God he’s human because his faults lie all around
His beat up, old Cadillac looks good in the dark
The sun can destroy good looks, even though we’re just talking about cars
Nothing to rely on
You got to get inside of him
The union has backed him up, he was blessed with two kids
His wife routinely loves him, he says he supports invalids
His beat up, old Cadillac looks good in the dark
The sun can destroy good looks even though we’re just talking about cars
