Boots on the Concrete

#britishoi #oipunk #punkrock #streetpunk #workingclass #bootsandbricks Raw, loud and uncompromising Oi! and streetpunk, inspired by the spirit of the British working-class scene of the 1980s. Heavy boots, loud guitars, rough vocals and sing-along choruses. Songs about working-class pride, football, friendship, loyalty, standing your ground and staying true to your roots. No fancy production. No rock stars. Just streetpunk attitude, pounding drums and plenty of Oi! Oi! Oi! BOOTS ON THE CONCRETE OI! OI! OI! OI! BOOTS! BOOTS! BOOTS! HERE WE GO! Six in the morning, factory gate Another bloody shift, another day to hate Shaved head, braces, boots on the floor Same old bastards wanting more and more Grease on my hands, sweat on my face Born and raised in this working-class place They look at my boots, they look at my head They don't know a fucking thing about the life I've led! BOOTS ON THE CONCRETE! OI! OI! OI! STANDING ON OUR FEET! OI! OI! OI! WE AIN'T RICH! WE AIN'T FINE! BUT THIS FUCKING LIFE IS MINE! BOOTS ON THE CONCRETE! OI! OI! OI! Saturday morning, down to the ground Scarves in the air and the terrace sound Ninety minutes, shouting ourselves hoarse Win or lose, we'll be back, of course! Monday comes, it's the same old grind Bills on the table, trouble on my mind But I've got my mates and I've got my pride And I won't let the bastards take either away! BOOTS ON THE CONCRETE! OI! OI! OI! STANDING ON OUR FEET! OI! OI! OI! WE AIN'T RICH! WE AIN'T FINE! BUT THIS FUCKING LIFE IS MINE! BOOTS ON THE CONCRETE! OI! OI! OI! WHO ARE WE? WORKING CLASS! WHAT WE GOT? BOOTS AND BRASS! WHAT WE WANT? A DECENT LIFE! NO MORE SHIT! NO MORE LIES! BOOTS ON THE CONCRETE! OI! OI! OI! STANDING ON OUR FEET! OI! OI! OI! FROM THE FACTORY TO THE FOOTBALL GROUND YOU'LL NEVER KEEP THE WORKING MAN DOWN! BOOTS ON THE CONCRETE! OI! OI! OI! BOOTS! BRACES! WORKING CLASS! OI! OI! OI!
