Product of my very first skirmish. The theme had to do with blood sweat which comes from hippos. The song has nothing to do with that except for the words "blood" and "sweat".
lyrics
Sweat and Blood
Words & Music by JW Hanberry
You worked hard and you poured sweat
You fought hard and you shed blood
Ya put 'em together just hopin' to get
Any little thing that you could.
You put food on the table
Left the dirty plates in the sink
Did the best you was able
But you got out of hand when you hit the drink
Ch
It's time to cool that crazy down
Pick your self up out of the mud
'Cause every time you roll into town
You come back covered in sweat and blood.
1/2 re-Intro
Blood and sweat is all that you get
For actin' the fool every time
Leave it alone, don't bring it back home
The blood and the sweat ain't worth a thin dime.
[Ch]
It's time to cool that crazy down
Pick your self up out of the mud
'Cause every time you roll into town
You come back covered in sweat and blood.
Bridge
You can spend all your lifetime sweatin' your heart out
Bleedin' your poor body dry
Instead of straight talkin' you just wanna shout
Scared that you're about to cry
Gtr Ch
re-Intro
Seems like a lot of wasted effort
For the tiny reward that you get
Why'n'cha try chillin instead of just spillin'
All of that blood (and) all that sweat.
[Ch]
It's time to cool that crazy down
Pick your self up out of the mud
'Cause every time you roll into town
You come back covered in sweat and blood.
Yeah every time you roll into town
You come back covered in sweat and blood.
Sweat and blood
