This reads pretty smoothly all the way through. Greg's got a very good point about this guy being a farmer, though. Besides not being blue-collar in the strictest sense of the term, I think farming is too archaic an occupation to celebrate in a song like this. An ode to an assembly line worker would be better yet.

Nit-wise, I'd say "It's a white-collar world, BUT he's a blue-collar man" (Greg's suggestion is good too), and lines 6 and 7 of the chorus makes it seem like he's praying for his own death. What I mean is, you're saying he'll keep on working 'til God lends a hand, and since he'll probably work 'til the day he dies, then..... well, that's the conclusion I got out of it.

Really nice job here, guys. Fairly solid stuff. [Linked Image] Good luck with it.
