[Verse 1]
Never any call for a lone wolf
You have to learn to go with the flow
But they can find a use for a scarecrow
Depending on your stomach for crows

[Chorus 1]
Always gonna need a little muscle
If you prove yourself worthy of trust
Your bones don't rust

[Verse 2]
Haven't checked a mirror in years
Don't need to know the bad news
There's not gonna be a gold watch
After thirty years of paying your dues

[Chorus 2]
Show up five minutes early as usual
Work on just a couple hours' rest
Your bones don't rust

[Bridge]
They stay hard as diamonds
They cut through steel
They still sing when they're hungry
And they ache when they're angry
[Verse 3]
Listen for the voice of the spirit
Maybe something wrong with your ears
Always on the edge of collapse now
Absolutely nobody cares

[Chorus 3]
But everybody loves a professional
Not a single track in the dust
Your bones don't rust

[Outro]
Your bones don't rust
Your bones don't rust
