lyrics

I got rocks in my pockets and grass in my shoes
I got me the landscaping blues
It's so fucking hot I don't know what to do
Maybe turn the sprinklers on for a second or to

I've been mowing lawns and blowing leaves
Trimming bushes trimming trees
Fixing sprinklers and pulling weeds
It's so hot, give me a breeze
I've been shoveling rock and mulch and dirt
When I get home my body hurts
I've got so many mud stains on my shirt
With no energy to exert

Cuz I got rocks in my pockets and grass in my shoes
I got me the landscaping blues
It's so fucking hot I don't know what to do
Maybe turn the sprinklers on for a second or to

I've been lifting wood and lifting stone
I've been weed wacking I've been all alone
Look at these plants and how much they've grown
My body aches down to the bone
I've been raking leaves and sticks and crud
I've been crawling through the dirty mud
And I just want to have some fun
But all too often I'm covered in blood

Cuz I got rocks in my pockets and grass in my shoes
I got me the landscaping blues
It's so fucking hot I don't know what to do
Maybe turn the sprinklers on for a second or to
