Ordinary Man |
| Try to understand |
| I’m not your ordinary man, still I can’t deny |
| You go with me everywhere |
| When I’m dreamin' you still share my lonely nights |
| Try to see my side |
| It’s not your ordinary pride that keeps drivin' me on |
| It’s that lonesome, restless feelin' that you feel under the gun |
| And it leads me to the highways but it keeps my body warm |
| And as I wander to the cities and the towns |
| I get so lonesome knowin' you could be around |
| And when the show is over, there’s a holiday motel |
| Another empty bottle and another tale to tell |
| Try to comprehend |
| I’m not your ordinary friend at the end of my life |
| I would pray that I could be |
| Returning to the shelter of your love |
| Try to see my side |
| It’s not your ordinary pride that keeps drivin' me on |
| It’s that lonesome, restless feelin' that you feel under the gun |
| And it leads me to the highways but it keeps my body warm |
| And as I wander to the cities and the towns |
| I get so lonesome knowin' you could be around |
| And when the show is over, there’s a holiday motel |
| Another empty bottle and another tale to tell |
| Try to understand |
| I’m not your ordinary man, still I can’t deny |
| You go with me everywhere |
| Like a shadow in the gloom |
| I remember all the good times |
| There’s a ghost in every room |
