Hard On Equipment / Tool For The Job Corb Lund
He's been r[E]oundin' off bolts since the age of fourteen
Was t[Bm]hat a five eighths or a n[E]ine sixteenths?
He's got a me[E]tric socket that don't quite fit
Well it'll wi[Bm]ggle just a little but it a[E]in't quite stripped
The safety[A] guard's gone from his grinding machine
He got a st[E]iff paint brush he only kinda got clean
He's the hi[A]red man, my neighbor and a cousin in law
He's a jerry[E] riggin' fool, he got the t[B7]ool for the [E]job
Well it's vise[A] grips for pliers, and pliers for a wrench
A wre[E]nch for a hammer, hammers everything else
It j[A]ust don't seem to make much difference
I s[E]ure do like him but he's h[B7]ard on equi[E]pment
I s[E]ure like you son, but you're h[B7]ard on equ[E]ipment
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
