Lyrics Blue Collar Man @ 2120 - Styx

Blue Collar Man @ 2120

Yeah
Yeah, I’m gonna be a blue collar man
Give me a job, give me security
Give me a chance to survive
I’m just a poor soul in the unemployment line
My God, I’m hardly alive
Mother, father, wife and my friends
I see them laugh in my face
I got the power, and I got the will
I’m not a charity case
I’ll take those long nights, impossible odds
Keeping my eye to the keyhole
If it takes all that to be just what I am
I’m gonna be a blue collar man, yeah
Gonna be, yes I am
A blue collar man
Make me an offer that I can’t refuse
Make me respectable, man
This is my last time in the unemployment line (Hey hey)
So like it or not I’ll take the
Long nights, impossible odds
Keeping my back to the wall (Wanna be a blue collar man)
If it takes all that to be just what I am (Hey hey hey)
I’m gonna be a blue collar man
Keeping my mind on a better life (Yeah yeah)
Where happiness is only a heartbeat away (Do the best I can)
A heartbeat away
Paradise, (Yeah) can it be all I heard it was
I close my eyes (Oh yeah) and maybe I’m already there, hey hey
Ooh yeah
I’m gonna take the long nights, (Yeah) impossible odds
Keeping my eye to the keyhole (Wanna be a blue collar man)
If it takes all that to be just what I am (Hey hey hey)
I’m gonna be a blue collar man
Oh, yes I am
I’m gonna be
Blue collar man
Come on
I am what I am
And I’ll take the long nights, (Yeah) impossible odds
Keeping back to the wall (Wanna be a blue collar man)
And if it takes all that
All that (All that) to be just what I am (Hey hey hey)
I’m gonna be a blue collar
Gotta be a blue collar
Gonna be a blue collar man
Hey, hey
I’m gonna be (Gonna be a blue collar man)
Gonna be a blue collar man (Gonna be a blue collar man)
Do the best I can
Gonna be a blue collar man (Gonna be a blue collar man)
Hey, I’m gonna be a blue collar man (Gonna be a blue collar man)
Yeah, I’m gonna be a blue collar man (Gonna be a blue collar man)
Every time I look at you, I see something I could do (Uh-huh)
Gonna be a blue collar man (Gonna be a blue collar man)
Yeah, gonna be a blue collar man (Gonna be a blue collar man)
I am what I am (Gonna be a blue collar man)
Gonna be a blue collar man
Oh, I told you when I look at you
Something I just wanna do
Hey, blue collar man
