No Room On The Crew

Cut my teeth in Kentucky, dynamitin' coal
Turned sixteen on a tanker, haulin' crude from Mexico
Worked my way up to Washington, made the timber fall
Had a card in every union and I never missed a call
Put me on the time clock, there ain't nothin' I can't do
How can you tell me there's no room on the crew

Chorus:
There's no room on the crew
Hell , I've heard that line before, yeah, I've heard it before
Tell you what I'm gonna do to prove you can use one more
Put your five best men together and if they fill my shoes
Then you can tell me there's no room on the crew
Picked Tennessee tobacco till the hard times ran me out
Rolled steel up in Gary, they closed that big mill down
I did my best in Detroit city, they cut production back
Worked hard on the seaboard, for the railroad laying track
I gotta feed my family, there ain't nothin' I won't do
How can you tell me there's no room on the crew

Chorus:
There's no room on the crew
I've heard that line before, I've heard it before
Tell you what I'm gonna do to prove you can use one more
Put your five best men together and if they fill my shoes
Then you can tell me there's no room on the crew

Chorus:
There's no room on the crew
I've heard that line before, oh before
Tell you what I'm gonna do to prove you can use one more
Put your five best men together and if they fill my shoes
Then you can tell me there's no room on the crew
Then you can tell me... there's no room on the crew
