Lyrics Ordinary Man - Gordon Lightfoot
Try
to
understand
I'm
not
your
ordinary
man,
still
I
can't
deny
You
go
with
me
everywhere
When
I'm
dreamin'
you
still
share
my
lonely
nights
Try
to
see
my
side
It's
not
your
ordinary
pride
that
keeps
drivin'
me
on
It's
that
lonesome,
restless
feelin'
that
you
feel
under
the
gun
And
it
leads
me
to
the
highway
but
it
keeps
my
body
warm
And
as
I
wander
to
the
cities
and
the
towns
I
get
so
lonesome
knowin'
you
could
be
around
And
when
the
show
is
over,
there's
a
holiday
motel
Another
empty
bottle
and
another
tale
to
tell
Try
to
comprehend
I'm
not
your
ordinary
friend
at
the
end
of
my
life
I
would
pray
that
I
could
be
Returning
to
the
shelter
of
your
love
Try
to
see
my
side
It's
not
your
ordinary
pride
that
keeps
drivin'
me
on
It's
that
lonesome,
restless
feelin'
that
you
feel
under
the
gun
And
it
leads
me
to
the
highway
but
it
keeps
my
body
warm
And
as
I
wander
to
the
cities
and
the
towns
I
get
so
lonesome
knowin'
you
could
be
around
And
when
the
show
is
over,
there's
a
holiday
motel
Another
empty
bottle
and
another
tale
to
tell
Try
to
understand
I'm
not
your
ordinary
man,
still
I
can't
deny
You
go
with
me
everywhere
Like
a
shadow
in
the
gloom
I
remember
all
the
good
times
There's
a
ghost
in
every
room
