The Leatherman - Joe Ficklin

There once was a crew both strong and skilled Went to a site a shed to build The ground was bare, the holes were filled Oh blow, my building boys, blow (huh) Soon may the Leatherman come To pry up wires and nails and gum One day, when construction is done We'll take our tools and go We'd not been but two minutes on site The foreman noticed something not right The box that held all the tools was light We'd left them all behind (huh) Soon may the Leatherman come To pry up wires and nails and gum One day, when construction is done We'll take our tools and go Da-da-da-da-da Da-da-da-da-da-da-da Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da Before the first boot hit the ground We parked our trucks and looked around But not a single hammer was found The day was starting slow (huh) Soon may the Leatherman come To pry up wires and nails and gum One day, when construction is done We'll take our tools and go The boss man had been here before And knew a path to the hardware store He'd take a list, some tools to score And we all watched him go (huh) Soon may the Leatherman come To pry up wires and nails and gum One day, when construction is done We'll take our tools and go Da-da-da-da-da Da-da-da-da-da-da-da Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da The next in charge had us take a walk Picking up trash and taking stock He said "You all are on the clock We'll prep this site for now" (huh) Soon may the Leatherman come To pry up wires and nails and gum One day, when construction is done We'll take our tools and go As far as I've heard, the shed's not done The foreman's out and the tools still gone A Leatherman's all that we've got on It'll work but it'll be slow (huh) Soon may the Leatherman come To pry up wires and nails and gum One day, when construction is done We'll take our tools and go Soon may the Leatherman come To pry up wires and nails and gum One day, when construction is done We'll take our tools and go
