Common Man

I think I've got enough to get to Austin, but where would I stay?
And that bus stop on Main St. in downtown ain't too far from me
Or maybe I'll stick around and do the best with what I've got
Hang out with all the do-have's, even when I have-not

You know me, I'm just like you
Common man through and through
Scars and all, search for truth,
but some days there's nothing I can do
But take it on the chin again, you know me – Common Man

Some say I'm down and out, but this place I've known a little longer
That might break them down, but me, I just get stronger
At the end of the day whether the
sun shines or I face the rain I'll...
Lay my head down
Even though you can't see all the way down
the road you know, it's gonna end somewhere.

You know me, I'm just like you
Common man through and through
Scars and all, search for truth,
but some days there's nothing we can do
But take it on the chin again, you and me – the Common Man

I might head down south and play them blues.
Or head out West and sing some honky-tonk for you.
It wouldn't matter where I land
cause where I'm from is where I'm standing
So I may see you now and then, you know me – Common Man.

You know me, I'm just like you
Common man through and through
Scars and all, search for truth,
but some days there's nothing we can do
But take it on the chin again, you know me – Common Man
