Rycon Boys
Maximus Cross
[Verse 1]
Six in the morning, boots hit the ground
Rycon trucks rolling through a half-frozen town
Toolbelts cinched, thermoses full
Another pour day, another concrete pull
Lou's still sleeping in that rental bed
Says the forecast called for rain instead
But we're out here mixing mud and stone
Getting it level, getting it done
[Chorus]
We show up when the sun ain't up
Work through the heat and the cold and the muck
Solve it in the field, no time to wait
Lou don't know what it takes
[Verse 2]
Thunderheads building by ten o'clock
We're tarping loads and securing the block
Radios cracking, foreman's call
Pour it now or we lose it all
Lou sends a text saying his back went out
Or his truck won't start, there's always some doubt
But we're knee-deep in it, pushing through
That's the difference between us and Lou
[Chorus]
We show up when the sun ain't up
Work through the heat and the cold and the muck
Solve it in the field, no time to wait
Lou don't know what it takes
[Bridge]
Rain or shine or sleet or dust
A job ain't done 'til the forms are bust
You can talk about it or you can do
But you can't be both—you can't be Lou
[Chorus]
We show up when the sun ain't up
Work through the heat and the cold and the muck
Solve it in the field, no time to wait
Lou don't know what it takes
[Outro]
(Lou don't know)
(What it takes)
Six in the morning, we do it again
