i'm a blue collar man had a hammer in my hand
for the last few years of my life
working double overtime
while you sleep alone at night
baby i know it's been a long hard ride
sometimes i forget to say i love you
but baby please know that i do, yeah
chorus
i live this life everyday
i make my share of mistakes
and every lesson i've learned
i've learned the hard way
i do the best that i can
and i hope you understand
after all, i'm just a man
i found a postcard that you've saved
that's turned yellow with age
of a beautiful place in the sun
we've been saying every year that we're gonna go there
and run away just the two of us
well i put that picture back on your dresser
grab my keys, i got to get back to work, yeah
chorus
i live this life everyday
i make my share of mistakes
and every lesson i've learned
i've learned the hard way
i do the best that i can
and i hope you understand
after all, i'm just a man
chorus
i live this life everyday
i make my share of mistakes
and every lesson i've learned
i've learned the hard way
i do the best that i can
and i hope you understand
after all, i'm just a man
after all, i'm just a man
that's all i am
baby i'm just a man |
