I'm a blue collar man, had a hammer in my hand, For the last few years of my life. Working double overtime while you sleep alone at night... Baby I know it's been a long hard ride. Sometimes I forget to say "I love you", But baby, please know that I do, yeah. I live this life everyday, I make my share of mistakes, And every lesson I've learned, I've learned the hard way. I do the best that I can, And I hope you understand, After all, I'm just a man. I found a postcard that you've saved, it's turned yellow with age, Of a beautiful place in the sun. We've been saying, every year, that we're gonna go there, And run away... just the two of us. Well, I put that picture back on your dresser, Grab my keys, I got to get back to work, yeah... I live this life everyday, I make my share of mistakes, And every lesson I've learned, I've learned the hard way. I do the best that I can, And I hope you understand, After all, I'm just a man. ^{Instrumental Break} I live this life everyday, I make my share of mistakes, And every lesson I've learned, I've learned the hard way. I do the best that I can, And I hope you understand, After all, I'm just a man. After all, I'm just a man. That's all I am, Baby, I'm just a man.
