[Verse 1]
She’s climbin’ high in her heels on a Monday,
Bossin’ up, makin’ plans, gettin’ paid,
He’s clockin’ in, wonderin’ if he’s enough,
Tryin’ to keep his head when the goin’ gets tough.
We’re all just lookin’ for a little bit of grace,
Tryin’ to find sunshine in a sideways place,
Everybody’s scared of slippin’ through the cracks,
But we all want love that’s gonna love us back.
[Chorus]
’Cause women are afraid of glass ceilings,
Men are afraid of glass floors,
But we all want that same good feelin’,
To know what we’re livin’ for.
Ain’t about who’s up or who’s kneelin’,
We’re all breakin’ down our own doors,
Yeah, women are afraid of glass ceilings,
Men are afraid of glass floors.
[Verse 2]
She’s told she’s strong, but “don’t be too loud,”
He’s told “be tough,” but “don’t cry out loud,”
We’ve built these walls outta fear and pride,
But hearts beat better when they’re side by side.
So let’s raise a toast to the in-between,
To every dreamer chasin’ a dream,
You can’t see faith but it’s always near,
It’s the sound of hope ringin’ in your ears.
[Chorus]
’Cause women are afraid of glass ceilings,
Men are afraid of glass floors,
But we all want that same good feelin’,
To know what we’re livin’ for.
Ain’t about who’s up or who’s kneelin’,
We’re all breakin’ down our own doors,
Yeah, women are afraid of glass ceilings,
Men are afraid of glass floors.
[Bridge]
Let’s stop pointin’ fingers, start holdin’ hands,
Break what we gotta, just to understand,
We’re all just souls tryin’ to make our mark,
A little bit of light in the great big dark.
[Final Chorus]
Women are afraid of glass ceilings,
Men are afraid of glass floors,
But love don’t care ‘bout feelin’s,
Or who’s been keepin’ score.
Let’s lift each other higher,
‘Cause the view’s worth fightin’ for,
Yeah, women are afraid of glass ceilings,
Men are afraid of glass floors.
[Tag / Outro]
So here’s to us, breakin’ through together,
Strong as steel and light as a feather.

Not altogether convinced of this one. The glass floor/ceiling feels at odds with the relationship part to me.
Glass ceiling / glass floor is a nice symmetry. I'm not exactly sure what a glass floor is or why I'd be afraid of one, but it sounds good!
Nice to see an office context for a country song. Not enough of those!
