Styx Lyrics

Song: Blue Collar Man
Written by tommy shaw
Lead vocals by tommy shaw

Give me a job, give me security
Give me a chance to survive
I知 just a poor soul in the unemployment line
My god, I知 hardly alive
My mother and father, my wife and my friends
I see them laugh in my face
But I致e got the power, and I致e got the will
I知 not a charity case

I値l take those long nights, impossible odds
Keeping my eye to the keyhole
If it takes all that to be just what I am
I知 gonna be a blue collar man

Make me an offer that I can稚 refuse
Make me respectable, man
This is my last time in the unemployment line
So like it or not I値l take those

Long nights, impossible odds
Keeping my back to the wall
If it takes all that to be just what I am
I知 gonna be a blue collar man

Keeping my mind on a better life
When happiness is only a heartbeat away
Paradise, can it be all I heard it was
I close my eyes and maybe I知 already there
Blue Collar Man Lyrics
