You may not know me now But I have been around You'll never see my name on any pages I'm just the common man The fool who understands The pain you go through When life takes you under
So, sing for the common man A song for the common man He paid for the song with the sweat of his brow He will survive, he will survive
You may not know my mother My sisters or my brothers Yet everyone has given for the other You know the working man He builds what others plan So, everyone of us should sing his story
So, sing for the common man A song for the common man He paid for the song with the sweat of his brow He will survive, he will survive
Dat after day He keeps working away In offices, factories, and farms Year after year He sheds tear after tear He will provide, he will survive
So, sing for the common man A song for the common man He paid for the song with the sweat of his brow He will survive, he will survive
