42 year old Blue collar roughneck here. Been working labor since I was 16 years old. Still to this day it's hard to wake up when that alarm goes off and it always comes too soon, but it's not about us. It's for family, a sacrifice, because we can take it, so our family doesnt have to. Great song.
Your a roughneck at 42?? Lmao. I love waking up knowing I'm going to the rig. The guys I work with the wells we drill the rig itself is what makes my world go round. Puts food on the table for my family and allows me to have nice trucks trailers a nice house, and a good life. It's not for everyone but this is where I belong.
As a lineman, I’ve missed my son birth. Missed his first, second, and 3rd birthday. This song hit the soul hard. I’ll do anything to ensure he live comfortably. May god bless the gas/oil field brothers.
Worked for Halliburton many years. 100+ hr weeks. Holidays on the well pad. Multiple log books. Missed important family ocassions. This song covers all that. God bless the gas n oil field brothers n sisters.
@@krireed I wish. Not a great idea doin that. Was allways tired n annoyed easily. Made for a nice payday. I do miss that. But the time away from family was hard. Then when I was at home I was working around the house. So never really got any rest.
@chuckriggsjr.6021 yeah we miss alot. 2 years different province old feild and mine work 10/4s 12 hr days yeah I saw my wife 2 months out those 2 years alot of family's don't know the sacrifices people make
@1BigMistakewell thank you. My family thanks u as well. Missed a lot n watched grandkids grow up in pictures n videos. Hung it up now. My body said I'm done. I miss it every day. But glad to be home as well.
Roughnecked 30 years. Worked with hundreds of men in that time. Greatest guys you could ever meet. It touched me to my core when that hand got a text from his wife saying she couldn't do it any more. Of all the different men I have known and worked with I can only count about 5 to maybe 10 whose wives didn't end up divorcing them, including my own. Many lose everything that mattered to them, some even their lives.
I'm an oilfield wife, he has had hauls that lasted months, sometimes Brazil, Nigeria, Singapore. If he is stateside, I feel lucky. There were no cell phones or internet when he first started. It takes a strong bond to get through those hauls, on both sides.
Never worked an oil field, but did spend time waking the rooster as an engineer in heavy highway construction, so to an extent I get it. What a great song. “Trading my days to keep my family fed.” 🇺🇸
I worked the Oilfields from age 18 for 44 year all over the world before retiring a couple of year ago age 62. The last 20 year was living in Africa both Onshore & Offshore, spent 9 months of one year offshore Africa. You are working to support your wife and children - but it gets hard at times.... Retirement is wonderful 🙂
Been in the oilfield going on 3 decades. It’s a hard life! I have been rag dolled across the floor of a rig by a stand of pipe. It’s a miracle I am still alive. I have a great wife and that meant a lot to get through being gone. The oilfield is a world of its own. I respect all who have worked or is working in it as myself still. Good song.
Nippleing up...pick up the stack to set it,i was on the stack when it tipped over,rode it out...only one of many tales,watch em drop our derrick,put a ripple in it,picked the truck it was tied off to get picked slammed it sideways in to the ground,blew all the windows out...magnaflux time
I knew an oilfield worker growing up. Toughest guy I ever met but would give you the shirt off his back in a heart beat. Family friend for many years, passed away in 2019. Rest in peace Roscoe.
As a vet and being deployed four times I missed a lot but damn right I'd never give up or get out till my job was done now I'm happy to say I see them daily ...... thanks to all the ppl who as men don't get any acknowledgment for everything that is being done just to make those around us happy
Been working in the oilfield 15 years now. We definitely make sacrifices for our families, but our family sacrifices time with us too. Shoutout to all the mommas holding it down while we keep the lights on.
They work and miss so much. Ladies, let's be kind to our hard working men. Even if it looks like they don't care, I promise they do. They work hard for us! So the next time you want to complain about them missing X, Y, & Z or that they aren't ever home...remember that they want to be there but providing for the family is everything to them. ❤
Most people don't understand the sacrifice a man endures to provide for his family. Only for it to be thrown back at him. Stay strong brothers were in it together 💪
If this was Australia you’d be getting $400k plus for a mere 40 hours plus all the enough frequent flier points to choke a horse. No wonder Australia is going bust.
I grew up with my dad working oilfields he'd be gone for weeks and I hated it but once I got older I realized what he sacrificed for us. He traded his memories with us for us to be able make memories in the future. Now he lives with me and my family and he's the best grandfather anyone could ask for. He is my hero.
I was raised in the oilfield. My Daddy was hardly ever home, but even from a young age, we all knew how hard he worked and what he sacrificed to take care of his family. New sub and added song to my playlist. Great song 🎵 🔥
What a great song! I’m not from U.S but I had a work where I almost couldn’t see my daughter. This song remember me those tough times besides this song makes me cried.
Since i was 15, Ive been in the blue collar jobs and now im 20. Recently i went through a serious injury that makes me no longer able to work in the blue collar industry anymore. Im now working a part time job at a restaurant and trying to start up my own little online business. This songs means alot even after my injury.
I broke out in 1990 as a floor hand and Sam Cessna was my driller, my best friend and my model plane test pilot, i helped put dirt on him not long ago. This song is a testament to our kind and our sacrifices for our families
I’ll tell you from experience(14 years in the industry and 7 years on work over rigs) it’s hard and ain’t for everyone. I’ve gotten those txts and missed major events just to put a roof over heads and food on the table. Such a good tune.
Steel Mill contractor here. Man this hits home. From the first verse to the last. Seen multiple marriages end. Missed my daughter’s birthday 2 weeks ago working 1600 miles from home😢 Gotta feed em tho💪🏻💪🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸
Being separated from your kids mother is hard, coparenting is hard. There is timing I left empty, an times when they are here I’m complete. Your verse that says if these walls can talk hits hard. I own 30 acres and my place to get away is at the top of my rock looking over everything, that’s when I am at peace.
I’m a 39 yr old oil field worker been in it for 21 yrs offshore I love it can’t want stop till it my time it’s provide for my family and I have had to make many sacrifices.respect to all oil field land r off shore if it wasn’t for us there wouldn’t be oil and gas . May all be safe we are all a family
I've never worked In an oil field but I work 8pm-7am 6 days a week. I hate hearing that alarm and most days I wish I could just quit but when I look at my son who Is almost five years old and he's got everything he needs and more I just can't let him down. I refuse to let him down. Whatever life has to throw at me I'll take It head first as long as he's taken care of. Great song.
Not an oil rig worker but I’m gone all week and home on the weekend. Out installing underground fiber all across Florida , Georgia and Alabama. Not being home with my new born son is hard as rock but it’s what’s required of me to provide for my beautiful family.
I’ve worked offshore in the oilfield pretty much all my life while raising kids. It’s exactly like that, thank you for putting that out there brother. God Bless
Damn Son!! This is the first time I've ever heard ya, damn good song! I just started my first job outta school in May as a Diesel Mechanic at an underground hard rock mine, 400 ft underground 3 miles in, its always interesting to me to see how some of these jobs like oil drilling are done! God bless the American blue collar working man.
Personally never been in the oil industry, but have many friends who went that route. The sacrifices and hell they put themselves through to provide for theirs is something else. This song gave me chills. God bless
At 16 dad said if u quit school u better have a job, in Oklahoma it was the oilfield , worked 6 yrs 11-7 and most of it was hooked to the safety line on the platform, tripping pipe, had friends killed seen hands loose fingers and was on one rig that blew out, caught fire and melted the Derek, glad I made it thru it, major respect for those who take that job!✌️❤️
God bless the men who work at these jobs. It's a rough time being away from the family for so long and the sacrifices they make for us who use their oil products. Stay safe out there, you're in my prayers.
@@HASHBROWNIEXJust a job? Nah. Theirs more going on behind the scenes. We are at that job to provide for those we love and cherish. We miss out on a lot and very rarely ask for anything In return. We don't care what the world throws at us because we aren't going to let those who depend on us down. Pain? Sick? Broken bones? Gotta walk to work? Doesn't matter because a man will always find a way to take care of his family.
ive not had this type of life, never experienced the harshness of it being from home or family for multiple days on end just working for hours. ive only ever gotten a glimps of it from friends, family, even my own parents my dad was an OTR trucker and was rarely home. to you guys out there working on rigs, oil pads, mining or truck driven yall have my respect i cant imagine the emotional dmage it has on yall being away from home for so long
The first scene of the video hits me right in the heart bro. I think that’s the toughest thing us roughnecks do every hitch. Tellin the family bye for 2 weeks. I’ve missed so many birthdays and holidays with the wife and kids. It’s a tough life
Worked in the oilfields of newmexico for years until the blowout almost took me out and gave it up.was a damn good life and taught you to man up worked busted up tripping pipe didn't matter roughness are a different breed stay safe out there hands
Worked for ibew for a year as a cw a electrician helper best group of guys and girls ever worked for! I got to see what my dad and everyone went through rather sun or snow I have deep respect for the blue collar workers
This lifestyle is tough, definitely not for everyone or the delicate. Done it for a couple of months and I grew mad respect for the guys that do it. Hardest job I've ever had and I've had tough jobs..
Been in it since I was 18, it’s not an easy life, it’s an extreme amount of sacrifice but it’s to give the kids and wife what all we need and more in this day and age. Roughnecked for 8 years and now run surface and subsea completions allover the world, it’s a hell of a challenge being away from the family sometimes months at a time but we will always make it happen👌🏽
This song hits home, especially when you are 3000 miles from home. It takes a strong woman to take care of things while we are gone. I am proud that i have one!
I did Casing for years out in North Dakota. Made me the man I am today. Would never go back. Unless my country absolutely needed me. That's some hard work.
Acknowledged,,, Brother,I am a retired injured Roughneck after 17 years of service as a Real Oil Field Hand, From Leed Tongue Worm all the way to Drillier and is considered a Roughneck Legend,Hate I had to Leave cause it's in My Blood And I admire All that's been there and done it,THANKS FOR THE CONSIDERATIONS AND RESPECT TO SHOW WHAT IT'S REALLY LIKE TO BE AN UNSUNG HERO
My dad drove a pump truck in the oil field my whole life now me and him work the same field and ive been blessed its only an hour from home and im home every night now
My dad works oilfield I always hate seeing him leave my sister runs down the road waving goodbye every time he leaves i wish I could be half the man he is and how many sacrifices he makes for our family
Pretty damn good bro. They call me Rooster on the rigs and ive been one of the baddest from the crown to the ground baby! No puffneck shit where we're at. Thank you for this!
Man if this ain’t truth brother this oil field life ain’t for the weak only the strong survive out here sacrifice it all for the family !!💪💪 it’s in the blood let’s keep chasing these well hand !!💪💪💪
Was a roughneck for 6 years and a rig mover for 11 years and rig welder for 8 years I love and miss working in the oil field I'm in the windmill industry now but my heart is still in the patch
My trucker only keeps trucking for me, I keep him fed with hot meals and clean home. He said behind every strong man is an even stronger woman. He works so hard, so many hours. God bless all yall blue collars, raise those babies just the same! Men in blue built up this country, don’t let men in suits destroy it!
My husband and I lived this life for a long time… he got tired of miss his sons and family events … when he got laid off like they do y’all he decided it was time for a change .. good music
Louisiana, West Texas, Wyoming, and Oklahoma. 14 days on and 1 day off. 14+ hours a day. The physical portion is fine. Mentally the hardest thing you’ll face.
42 year old Blue collar roughneck here. Been working labor since I was 16 years old. Still to this day it's hard to wake up when that alarm goes off and it always comes too soon, but it's not about us. It's for family, a sacrifice, because we can take it, so our family doesnt have to. Great song.
Keep on hammering buddy you're not alone! We see you!
Amen
This comment makes it a little easier to put them boots on every morning 💪💯 appreciate you
Your a roughneck at 42?? Lmao. I love waking up knowing I'm going to the rig. The guys I work with the wells we drill the rig itself is what makes my world go round. Puts food on the table for my family and allows me to have nice trucks trailers a nice house, and a good life. It's not for everyone but this is where I belong.
is it hard to get into roughnecking? im from germany and ill move to the US in 3 years
As a lineman, I’ve missed my son birth. Missed his first, second, and 3rd birthday. This song hit the soul hard. I’ll do anything to ensure he live comfortably. May god bless the gas/oil field brothers.
Feel you brother. 15 years on the line.
Life is short and family is more important than a job
My husband is oilfield. We have 2 kids and he’s 16 hours away. The sacrifices they make are wild! There is never enough words to thank them!👌
Especially when men because fathers, the flip of that switch is amazing
Thanks for sharing!!
Keep that in mind before you cheat😊
Thanks for sticking around for him I’m blue collar line men and pipe line welder most days and they always leave but this 1 stayed for me that’s love
Don't never cheat on him we make these sacrifices to take care of yaw and to come home to that is never good appreciate him as he does you
Keep going Bubba!❤ trust in the Lord Jesus Christ!❤

My buddy works for Haliburton. It's a job for a single dude. Definitely not family oriented. Props to you and big props to your family.
So very true.@@KyleThomas-Resto
@1BigMistakewell thank you. My family thanks u as well. Missed a lot n watched grandkids grow up in pictures n videos. Hung it up now. My body said I'm done. I miss it every day. But glad to be home as well.
A man is nothing without a good woman. I am blessed.
These days you find that your doing better than alot of guy's.
My daughters birthday is Sunday. Her dad will be offshore. We miss him but very grateful for him and everything he does for us.
I feel your pain

Closes thing I found … outside being overseas…
Don't give up hope, bro! All the divorces were probably not truly meant to be in the first place.
That's very sad. Woman aren't like they used to be. I've stood by a man that didn't deserve to be stood by for to long. It goes both way.

Yea but you’re so tore down and old you can’t get out and enjoy life at that point
Been in the ND oilfield for 12 years, worked from floors to derricks now I own my own company, best career I've ever had.
Respect to all men who spend hours and days away from home making this country run and function.
I agree for sure.
it ain’t easy thanks
I don't have to be away every night but I spend more hours working nights in a Walmart Warehouse than I do with my family @@thawarah97
Respect to my fellow brothers who do spend days an weeks away I know it's definitely hard for most you
Couldn't agree more

Cant stop listening to this song. Respect to all the roughnecks working their backs off to keep the world revolving‼️
18 yrs of it...loved every moment

As a traveling wind tech 1300 miles from my family back home, this one hit hard. Keep it up Bubba.🤙🏻
God Bless the men and women who keep this country going. Stay strong we got this yall.
I’ll tell you from experience(14 years in the industry and 7 years on work over rigs) it’s hard and ain’t for everyone. I’ve gotten those txts and missed major events just to put a roof over heads and food on the table. Such a good tune.
Steel Mill contractor here. Man this hits home. From the first verse to the last. Seen multiple marriages end. Missed my daughter’s birthday 2 weeks ago working 1600 miles from home😢 Gotta feed em tho💪🏻💪🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸
It’s stunning how many could relate to the same feelings! Dax you are doing a wonderful job putting these emotions in awesome music! Thank you 🙏
Great song. Probably top 10 favourite for me currently
Being separated from your kids mother is hard, coparenting is hard. There is timing I left empty, an times when they are here I’m complete. Your verse that says if these walls can talk hits hard. I own 30 acres and my place to get away is at the top of my rock looking over everything, that’s when I am at peace.
I lived that life for 35 years... It got me broke down and broken .. good luck with it
As an oil and gas investor. I want to personally say thank you all for your sacrifices both at home and the pad.

Great song ! Nobody knows what it is like unless you have lived the life. God bless us oilfield workers 🙏
