[Verse]

C
We're up when the rooster crows
Am
Clock in when the whistle blows
F
Eight hours ticking slow
C                       G                C
And then tomorrow we'll do it all over again
C                              Am
I'm a member of a blue collar crowd
Am                                     F
They can never, no they can't keep us down
F                         C
If you gotta, gotta label me
          G
Label me 'proud'


[Chorus]
                C
I belong to the drinking class
                          Am
Monday to Friday, man, we bust our backs
                     F
If you're one of us, raise your glass
                C
I belong to the drinking class


[Verse]

C
We laugh, we cry, we love
Am
Go hard when the going's tough
F
Push back on push and shove
C                              G           C
Knock us down, we'll get back up again and again
C                              Am
I'm a member of a good timing crowd
Am                             F
We get rowdy, we get wild and loud
F                         C
If you gotta, gotta label me
          G
Label me 'proud'


[Chorus]

                C
I belong to the drinking class
                          Am
Monday to Friday, man, we bust our backs
                     F
If you're one of us, raise your glass
                C
I belong to the drinking class


[Bridge]

C
We all know why we're here
Am
A little fun, a little music, a little whiskey, a little beer
F
We're gonna shake off those long week blues
C        G              C
Ladies, break out your dancing shoes
C                                       Am
It don't matter what night it is, it's Friday
Am                    F
It's Saturday, it's Sunday
F                                                 C
I just wanna hear you say, I just wanna hear you sing it
                   G
Y'all sing it with me


[Chorus]

                C
We belong to the drinking class
                          Am
Monday to Friday, man, we bust our backs
                     F
If you're one of us, raise your glass
                C
We belong to the drinking class
