Blue scrubs, got her hair pulled back
She's clocking in, but she just clocked out
She didn't sign up for this, but it is what it is
Tucks her baby in bed at night with a kiss
Then she's out the door for a 12 hour shift
Your day ends the second that hers begins
She Goes to Work
Headed to the front lines of the world
She's a get your hands dirty, go get 'em kind of girl
She's a breadwinner, cooks dinner, sacrifices day in and day out
She goes to work
Every day with her heart on her sleeve
Underpaid over time, set aside all her dreams
She doesn't get the thanks that she deserves
She goes to work
Army green since she was eighteen
Too young to see the things she seen
Hat pulled over her hair
Heartbreaking behind that stronghold stare
Cause it's been six months since she's been home
Momma cries in the kitchen and daddys on the phone
Says i love you, we'll talk soon I gotta go
She Goes to Work
Headed to the front lines of the world
She's a get your hands dirty, go get 'em kinda girl
She's a breadwinner, cooks' dinner, sacrifices day in and day out
She goes to work
Every day with her heart on her sleeve
Underpaid over time, set aside all her dreams
She doesn't get the thanks that she deserves
She goes to work
Aint no secret the ones who really save the day
The truth is not all heroes wear capes
She Goes to Work
Headed to the front lines of the world
She's a get your hands dirty, go get 'em kinda girl
She's a breadwinner, cooks' dinner, sacrifices day in and day out
She goes to work
Every day with her heart on her sleeve
Underpaid over time, set aside all her dreams
She doesn't get the thanks that she deserves
She goes to work
She goes to work
She goes to work
