Common Ground

There's a suit and tie leavin' at five
For a waitress scrapin' by on minimum wage
There's a preacher man in a Cadillac
Drivin' by a cardboard sign that says "Jesus Saves"
There's a hometown quarterback with his bags packed
All dressed up in army green
Just fightin' for the right to see ol' glory fly
And someone to take a knee

And we're all on a different journey
And we're all findin' our own way
And we're all livin', we're all learnin'
From the cradle to the grave
We're all weak, we're all strong
We're all right and we're all wrong
When time runs out
We all end up in common ground

We're the haves and we're the have-nots
Saying we've all got reasons why we do or don't
But the lines that separate us while we're here
Gonna disappear when we're gone

'Cause we're all on a different journey
We're all findin' our own way
And we're all livin', we're all learnin'
From the cradle to the grave
We're all weak, we're all strong
We're all right and we're all wrong
And when time runs out
We all end up

Losin' all these labels that we wear
So we can find it here
Or we can find it there

'Cause we're all on a different journey
We're all findin' our own way
And we're all livin', we're all learnin'
From the cradle to the grave
We're all weak, we're all strong
We're all right and we're all wrong
And when time runs out
We all end up in common ground
Common ground
