There’s some people
that can talk
a blue streak
say all the right things
lay on the charm
butter on hot bread
good like that
But that’s about
as far as it goes
when there’s work
to be done.
and push comes to shove
or there’s a time
when you’re stuck
between a rock and a hard place
it seems like
talking is all
they know to do
tell you what
tell you a hundred reasons why
you should do things
their way
but that’s as far as it goes
it’s easy to do the talking
hard to do the walking
and that’s when you
separate the boys from the men
find out the truth
about who’s who
goes the extra mile
sticks around
makes the best
out of what’s happening
finds a way
digs deep
shows up
pulls the weight
and doesn’t waste time
standing around talking
when there’s work
to be done.
