Danielle Peck - Brick By Brick Lyrics

Send "Brick By Brick" ringtone to your cell

I look around and all I see

Are people just like you and me

They smile and wave and don't complain

Earn each dollar that they make

Some punch the clock with overtime

Sneak in to kiss their kids goodnight

Others work a long hard day

And still make time for PTA

When we get tired, we get tough

But that's the way that we grew up

Chorus

You bet I'm proud that my father

Is a working man who wears a blue collar

I was taught to work hard, play hard, but pray harder

Life ain't about the get there quick

You gotta build it brick by brick

I'm thankful that my mom and dad

Loved with everything they had

But let me make my own mistakes

That's the biggest gift they could have gave

There's something to be said about

Scraping knees and falling down

Gettin' right back up again

And giving all you have to give

I learned to walk by watching them

That made me who I am

Repeat Chorus

A swift trip up on an easy ride

Leaves you with nothing but a long slide down

Chorus

You bet I'm proud that my father

Is a working man who wears a blue collar

I was taught to work hard, play hard, love hard but pray harder

Life ain't about the get there quick

You gotta build it brick by brick

Brick by brick, yeah
