Chippin' Away Lyrics - Hart Corey

(VERSE SPOKEN) 

Are you ready? 

Thumbs are up. 

One, two, three, four. 

Hey mister take a load off let me explain 

I'm not hidin' from you carry the blame 

Have yourself a good look from the Saskatoon plain 

Nothing's that clear in life I swear by the claim 

I rack my conscience for the will to achieve 

I could lie, die, cry and to this day not receive 

Cause I'm not steady like Eddy 

I may not smile for awhile 

Got a little of the devil and a mean streak 

Cause I hope to one day be complete 

In the meantime, yes 

We're just chippin' away? 

Eh, got 'ole Michael Hehir playin' on guitar 

Sometimes we go for months 

Not talk at all 

No crumblin' wall here 

The journey's come too far 

'O rocket spaceship 

Take us to the stars 

They're building castles 

Straight up to the sky 

But the Empire States 

Still looks to me like it's high 

(I'm not steady like Eddy 

I may not smile for awhile 

Got a little of the devil, and a mean streak) 

Cause I hope to one day be complete 

In the meantime, yes 

We're just chippin' away? 

O yea 

(I'm not steady like Eddy 

I may not smile for awhile) 

Got a little of the devil and a mean streak 

I hope to one day be complete, yea 

I'm not steady like Eddy, 'o no 

And I may not smile for awhile 

Got a little of the devil and a mean streak, yea 

I hope to one day be complete 

God I'm not steady like Eddy, 'o no 

I may not smile for awhile 

God bless the poor man, who knows what he seeks 

Cause I hope to one day be complete 

In the meantime, yes (yoa) 

We're just chippin' away 

O-o, (yoa) 

O-o 

O-o. 

"Ha, ha, I'm a bastard." (spoken)
