tommy shaw - blue collar man (long nights) lyrics
[intro]
oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no
[verse 1]
gimme a job, gimme 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, my father, my wife and my friends
i see them laugh in my face
but i got the power, and i got the will
i’m not a charity case
[hook]

keeping my eye to the keyhole
and if it takes all that to be just what i am
i’m gonna be a blue collar man, yeah
i’m gonna, gonna, gonna

[chorus]
long nights, impossible odds

and if it takes all that to be just what i am
i’m gonna be a blue collar man

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
[chorus]
and i’ll take the long nights, impossible odds
keeping my back to the wall
and if it takes all that to be just what i am
i’m gonna be a blue collar man

keeping my back to the wall
and if it takes all that to be just what i am
i’m gonna be a blue collar
gotta be a blue collar

[outro]
i’m gonna be a blue collar man
