Blue Collar Man (Long Nights) |
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 |
My mother and father, my wife and my friends |
I see them laugh in my face |
But I’ve got the power, and I’ve 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 |
Make me an offer that I can’t refuse |
Make me respectable, man |
This is my last time in the unemployment line |
So like it or not I’ll take those |
Long nights, impossible odds |
Keeping my back to the wall |
If it takes all that to be just what I am |
I’m gonna be a blue collar man |
Keeping my mind on a better life |
When happiness is only a heartbeat away |
Paradise, can it be all I heard it was |
I close my eyes and maybe I’m already there. |
