Common Man Lyrics

As the maid poured wine and we prepared to dine
I knew I was feeling out of place
At a table as large as a river barge
and I love you written all on your face
I appreciate your hospitality but I wish that we would go
Let me drive us to McDonalds' and I'll talk to you
concerning something you should really know
-CHORUS-
I'm just a common man drive a common van
My dog ain't got a pedigree
If I have my say, gonna stay that way
Cause high-browed people lose their sanity
And a common man is what I'll be
I'll take a Chevrolet just any day
so give your daddy back his Mercedes Benz
And there's some common people that I hang out with
They're my good time buddies they're my friends
And I'd rather chug-a-lug a mug of Budweiser beer
than sip a crystal glass of wine
So won't you make your mind up to believe in me and leave this high living world behind?

-Repeat CHORUS-
Yes I'm happy just being free
And I'm happy just being me
And I hope that you will see

-Repeat CHORUS 2Xs-
