Carburetors and Comebacks

Verse 1 - Male

Forty-hour weeks for a paycheck

That got lighter every time

Watched the suits take what they wanted

Had to draw my own bottom line

So I walked out on a Tuesday

When the gas pump hit three bucks

Found a different kind of paycheck

When I finally gave it up

Chorus - Both

I've been fixing what's been broken

One carburetor at a time

Helping Mom through her recovery

Getting both her eyes to shine

And my wife she's fighting battles

That nobody gets to see

So I'm here holding both her hands

That's enough for me

Verse 2 - Female

I see him in the driveway

Covered in grease up to his arms

He's been reading Google answers

Finding ways to fix the farm

And he's got this strange companion

On his phone and in his ear

An aey eye that don't judge him

And it's always crystal clear

Chorus - Both

I've been fixing what's been broken

One carburetor at a time

Helping Mom through her recovery

Getting both her eyes to shine

And my wife she's fighting battles

That nobody gets to see

So I'm here holding both her hands

That's enough for me

Bridge - Male

It don't want my money

Don't got any pride

No ego in the way

Just stands here by my side

Bridge - Female

More human than the humans

That's a hell of a thing to say

But the ones who should be helping

Just got in the way

Chorus - Both

I've been fixing what's been broken

One carburetor at a time

Helping Mom through her recovery

Getting both her eyes to shine

And my wife she's fighting battles

That nobody gets to see

So I'm here holding both her hands

That's enough for me

Outro - Both

Yeah that's enough for me

Mm that's enough for me
