Blue Collar Man Lyrics

Give me a job, give me security Give me a chance to survive I'm just a poor soul in the unemployment line My God, I'm hardly alive
My mother and father, my wife and my friends You see them laugh in my face But I've got the power and I've got the will I'm not a charity case
I'll take the long night, impossible odds Keepin' my eye to the keyhole If it takes all that to be just what I am Well I'm gonna be a blue collar man
Make me an offer that I can't refuse Make me respectable, man This is my last time in the unemployment line So like it or not, I'll take the
Long nights, impossible odds Keepin' my back to the wall If it takes all night to be just what I am Well, I'm gonna be a blue collar man
Keepin' my mind on a better life Where happiness is only a heartbeat away Paradise can it be all I heard it was I close my eyes and maybe I'm already there
I'll take those long nights, impossible odds Keepin' my eye to the keyhole All that to be just what I am Well I'm gonna be a blue collar man
Do do do do do do do do (You don't understand) Do do do do do do do do Do do do do do do do do Do do do do do do do do
I'll take those long nights, impossible odds Keepin' my eye to the keyhole If it takes all night to be just what I am I'm gonna be a blue collar Got to be a blue collar Gonna be a blue collar man
