Roadwork Rappin'

[Chorus]

Construction

Vehicles

They move that dirt around

Build a road where there isn't a road

Construction

Vehicles

They move that dirt around

Dig a hole where there isn't a hole

[Verse 1]

Big boss bulldozer

Told that pile of debris to move over (move over)

Push around rocks, you can push around weight

You should call a bulldozer if there's something in the way

Front loader, cousin of the dozer

Bucket on the front, dumping rubble on the shoulder of the road

Or sand for a highway off-ramp

Tow a couple tree trunks, free up a log jam

Back of the front loader, a glorious backhoe

The long arm stretch out and pull the earth back home

Dig a trench for the plumbing and electric

Or dig yourself a pond and put some fishy little friends in her

Skip the pond and start thinking major

That homemade lake, that excavator

Add a concrete mixer and a dump truck

That's a work site

Thumbs up

[Chorus]

Construction

Vehicles

They move that dirt around

Build a road where there isn't a road

Construction

Vehicles

They move that dirt around

Dig a hole where there isn't a hole

[Verse 2]

A crane will get a worker to the top of any building

A double drum roller pave the parking lot for shredding

I seen my buddy Louie send a wave out to the driver

The driver honked the horn, it made his day a little brighter

Most people think it's noisy but you ain’t find us complaining

When those mechanisms roar, it means the makers have been making

The graders have been grading and that map is slowly figured, plus

Orange cones delivering what orange cones deliver

The sign says caution but the vibe says awesome, it’s both

A safe distance is the wisest approach

It's cool to see that heavy machinery live and up close

Just hit the deck when they start revving up or widening a road

I like a hole in the ground, I like a wrecking ball in motion

For the crystal clear intention; destruction is the motive

I also like a bird up from the ashes

Especially as a vehicle carrying something massive

[Chorus]

Construction

Vehicles

They move that dirt around

Build a road where there isn't a road

Construction

Vehicles

They move that dirt around

Dig a hole where there isn't a hole

[Verse 3]

I love a good detour

Folk drive around, I pull over, "Give me more!"

Flashing amber hazard lights, sure to set the mood

For a forklift all the way to the moon

Stay tuned

I welcome any symphony of backup beepers beeping

It's music to my ears, I'd rather it to sleeping

A welcoming cacophony of drills and demolition

The crashing and the clanging, the decibels of engine

That articulated hauler want the center of attention

Though it's more a gentle giant running extra heavy errands

Hauling garbage off the site and looking handsome in that yellow

Truck's so long, in the center, it has an elbow

I love road work

I almost love it more than when the road works

Nothing hit the spot quite like waking up to Monday morning road work on my block

[Chorus]

Construction

Vehicles

They move that dirt around

Build a road where there isn't a road

Construction

Vehicles

They move that dirt around

Dig a hole where there isn't a hole
