Uncommon Man

Well I work like a dog on the midnight shift

Where I'm a number not a name

So many times I've wanted to quit

And break loose from these chains

But I've got a family waitin' back home

And they all depend on me

For the clothes they wear upon their backs

And the shoes on their feet

I'm an uncommon man that nobody sees

I pay my way every working day no one carries me

My blood sweat and tears are etched upon this land

I'm just an ordinary uncommon man

Mr Congressman Mr Senator I think you oughta know

You can't pretend I don't exist and expect to get my vote

All I want is what is fair I'm not one to complain

If you'll just show me some respect then I'll show you the same

I'm an uncommon man...

My neck may be a little red my collar may be blue

I'll meet anybody half the way but I'm nobody's fool

I'm an uncommon man...

Well I'm just an ordinary uncommon man
