Daddy put in his 40 years Got his gold watch then they sent him home I never knew what his struggle was like 'Til I cried tears on his stone He was just a cog in their wheel Live and died on the layaway plan But Lord, hear the prayer of a common man
Hallelujah, is anybody up there Hallelujah, does anybody care Life takes its toll on the heart and soul But I'm doing the best I can But Lord, hear the prayer of a common man
My little girl needed braces, man And it costs a couple thousand bucks She's got a beautiful smile But it'll be a while On my new, used pick-up truck This house of cards I built is mortgaged to the hilt And it's sinking in the sand Now Lord, hear the prayer of a common man
Hallelujah, is anybody up there Hallelujah, does anybody care Life takes its toll on the heart and soul But I'm doing the best I can But Lord, hear the prayer of a common man
I'm not looking for charity I just need some clarity I've got people counting on me And I'm tired, that's all And I'm up against the wall Lord, hear me when I call
Hallelujah, I know you're up there Hallelujah, I know you care Life takes its toll on the heart and soul But I'm doing the best I can Oh Lord, hear the prayer of a common man Lord, hear the prayer of a common man
