Lyrics Common Man - John Conlee

Thank you
Thank you very much
Hello, everybody

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 McDonald's, and I'll talk to you
Concerning something you should really know

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 highbrow 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

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 highbrow people lose their sanity
And a common man is what I'll be

And I'm happy just being free
And I'm happy just being me
And I hope that you will see

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 highbrow people lose their sanity
And a common man is what I'll be

Hey, Common Man, that is me
Yes, yes, yes, thank you very much
And welcome to Billy Bobs, everybody
We are gonna do a buncha hit records for you here tonight
Songs that you made hits for us
Gonna do some new stuff that you might not have heard us do
Basically, gonna let the good times roll all over you
