[Intro]
Am C/B C G C Am
(x4)

[Verse 1]
Am C/B C G C Am
This labor I’ve been doing ain’t got no reason or rhyme
Am C/B C G C Am
And I can’t hardly wait for it to finally be quittin’ time
Am C/B C G C Am
And I’ve been pushing steel through a run down rust belt plant
Am C/B C G C Am
And I can’t wait to head on home, so I can take my gal to dance
G C Am
How I’ll take my gal to dance
G C Am
Oh, I’ll take my gal to dance

[Verse 2]
Am C/B C G C Am
The desert sure is hot and we’ve been working through the days
Am C/B C G C Am
I pray I get back to my loving lady’s gaze
Am C/B C G C Am
Rifle in my hand and some brothers to my side
Am C/B C G C Am
I can’t hardly wait for it to finally be quittin’ time
G C Am
Oh, I pray it’ll be quittin’ time
G C Am
Oh, one day it’ll be quittin’ time

[Chorus]
F C
Quittin’ time’s been on my mind
G Am
But her kind eyes are on my heart
F C
I’ve been swеating for my wages
G Am
But she’ll cool me aftеr dark
G C Am
How she’ll cool me after dark
G C Am
I know she’ll cool me after dark

[Solo]
Am C/B C G C Am
(x4)

[Bridge]
Am C/B C G C Am
And I’ve been roofing houses atop of homes I can’t afford
Am C/B C G C Am
But I’m saving all my pennies and I’m praying to the Lord
Am C/B C G C Am
One day we’ll make it through all this barely gettin’ by
Am C/B C G Am
I’m taking out my woman and we’re dancing barefoot tonight

[Chorus]
F C
Quittin’ time’s been on my mind
G Am
But her kind eyes are on my heart
F C
I’ve been swеating for my wages
G C Am
But she’ll cool me aftеr dark
G C Am
How she’ll cool me after dark
G C Am
I know she’ll cool me after dark

[Outro]
Am C/B C G C Am
