This hammer sure feels heavy
This close to quittin' time
Even though I'm tired now
Soon I'll come alive
Wash my hands and change this shirt
And head out down the road
That takes me to the one I love
Waitin' there at home
And it's the sweetest place I've ever been
Calloused hands, love tender skin
That's where the good times all begin
Calloused hands, love tender skin
She knows the world I work in
Can sometimes take its toll
Hands that work so hard all day
Need someone soft to hold
She takes the perfume off the shelf
And lets her hair hang low
And when I hit the door
She's there to make sure that I know
That it's the sweetest place I've ever been
Calloused hands, love tender skin
That's where the good times all begin
Calloused hands, love tender skin
It's the sweetest place I've ever been
Calloused hands, love tender skin
That's where the good times all begin
Calloused hands, love tender skin
