Lyrics
Ordinary Man by Brian Hazelbower Well I work like a dog on a midnight shift just a number not a name So many times I wanted to quit and break loose from those chains But I’ve got a family waitin at home ya and they rely on me So I give when I can an I say a little prayer for anything we need I’m an ordinary man take a look an see I pay my way go to work each day no one carries me My blood sweat and tears are etched upon my brow ya I’ve been around I’m and ordinary man Well Mr Congressman, Mr Senator I think you otta know You can’t act like I don’t exist and expect to get my vote All I want is what is right I’m not one to complain If you’ll just show us some respect I know I’ll show you the same From an ordinary man take a look an see I pay my way go to work each day no one carries me My blood sweat and tears are etched upon my brow ya I’ve been around I’m and ordinary man My neck may be a little red, I use the golden rule I’ll meet anybody half the way but I’m nobodies fool Just an ordinary man take a look an see I pay my way go to work each day no one carries me My blood sweat and tears are etched upon my brow ya I’ve been around I’m and ordinary man Sometimes extraordinary dig a little and you’ll find glory In an ordinary man, any ordinary man
