Job Description Lyrics

Well, I know sometimes you find it hard 
To understand just what we do out here
Well, that bus rolls up at home 
And I just disappear

And I sure don't like to leave you 
Couldn't stand for you to think that I don't care
So I wrote this job description 
Just to tell you what I do when I'm not there

[CHORUS]
I sleep eighty miles an hour 
To the whining of a diesel down the interstate
Dreaming 'bout my little girls 
The easy chair that sits beside the fireplace
Then we shut her down in another town 
We shower up 
And do just what we came to do
Sing for the people 
Count the money 
And the miles back home to you

Well, each night I take the stage 
With a six-piece band and a guitar in my hand
Singing songs about my life 
All the good times and the bad

And we say goodbye and we load it up 
And head somewhere I've already been
Then I lay down in that double bed alone
And I thank the Lord again

[REPEAT CHORUS]

Well, I just sing for the people 
Count the money 
And the miles back home to you
