Work Away |
| My name’s Cole, I’m from Prince George, BC, Canada |
| I work in Fort Mack, I’m only home about 7 days out of each month |
| My family lives in Enfield, Nova Scotia and I work in Baffin Island, Nunavut |
| I’m Wendy, I’m from Vancouver Island and I work up in the Alberta oil sands |
| I may be tired but I’m not asleep |
| My eyes are open and my heart still beats |
| I may be outside, but I’m not out cold |
| I got my heart and I still got my soul |
| It’s time to get my feet back on the ground |
| It’s my last night home, tomorrow, I’m gone |
| I work away, I work away |
| Tomorrow, I’m gone |
| I work away, I work away |
| It’s my last night at home, tomorrow, I’m gone |
| I gotta wake up before the sun’s up |
| I gotta catch a flight in the early morn |
| My bags are packed and my favorite hat |
| I work away to make it work at home |
| I’m gone again, gone again |
| Give the kids kisses, I’m off again |
| They don’t wanna see me have to leave |
| But I’ll be back soon, I promise them |
| I work away cause there ain’t enough work where I come from |
| But honestly, I love where I come from |
| So I’m back home under one month |
| From the West coast to the East coast |
| To my family and my people |
| Don’t miss a beat when my heart skips |
| I gotta work hard through these hardships |
| I put my head down and go for it |
| Put in overtime with no bonuses |
| And my girl’s birthday is next week |
| I’m just hoping that I’ll be home for it |
| So leave the lights on, keep the bed warm |
| I’ll be there in just a minute |
| I’ll see you soon as I can, but I got business that I gotta finish |
| I work away |
| I may be tired but I’m not asleep |
| My eyes are open and my heart still beats |
| I may be outside, but I’m not out cold |
| I got my heart and I still got my soul |
| It’s time to get my feet back on the ground |
| It’s my last night home, tomorrow, I’m gone |
| I work away, I work away |
| Tomorrow, I’m gone |
| I work away, I work away |
| It’s my last night at home, tomorrow, I’m gone |
| I know I’m gonna miss this when I’m gone |
| But I’m optimistic and stay strong |
| I write this song for anybody who gotta work long distance and beyond |
| Anybody working 3 weeks on to get a week off, then put your feet up |
| Then you gotta try to give the weed up |
| Cause it might be your week to fill the pee cup (aww) |
| I’m feeling for ya, but you work it out |
| There ain’t much work in this town |
| But we put our head down and search it out |
| We drive away, fly away |
| And I don’t wanna say goodbye today |
| I love my home, but I gotta go |
| And I know it’s just a small price to pay |
| Cause if you don’t work, then it won’t work |
| Tonight, let’s have a little toast for |
| The people leaving in the morning |
| We can’t wait 'til you come back home, work |
| I got pictures on my cellphone, I got memories on my mind |
| They’ll be back, just a matter of time |
| Then we’ll do this again, but it’s back to the grind |
| We work |
| I may be tired but I’m not asleep |
| My eyes are open and my heart still beats |
| I may be outside, but I’m not out cold |
| I got my heart and I still got my soul |
| It’s time to get my feet back on the ground |
| It’s my last night at home, tomorrow, I’m gone |
| I work away, I work away |
| Tomorrow, I’m gone |
| I work away, I work away |
| Tomorrow, I’m gone |
| I work away, I work away |
| It’s my last night at home, tomorrow, I’m gone |
| Alright, my name is A.J. |
| I work 5 hours away, 5 days a week for my wife and 2 |
| little girls in North Bay, Ontario |
| C.J. from New Harbour, Newfoundland, I work all over the world, I leave for |
| four weeks at a time |
| This is, my family’s from North Toledo, Ohio |
| (I may be outside, but I’m not out cold |
| I got my heart and I still got my soul |
| It’s time to get my feet back on the ground |
| It’s my last night home, tomorrow, I’m gone) |
