You've heard songs about the bright lights of the city
|
And songs about the heroes of our land
|
But there's one guy around who never lets us down
|
The every day family man
|
|
He works hard to pay the mortgage and the taxes
|
And there's lots of things that he don't understands
|
While we spend millions on the moon when the world may blow out soon
|
The every day family man
|
|
You won't read it in the headlines of the papers
|
The things he does with his two calloused hands
|
But every night when he comes home he's a king of his Rome
|
The every day family man
|
[ piano ]
|
He won't be there when awards and all are given
|
But he's close by when his neighbor needs a hand
|
When he tells his kids goodnight the whole world for him is right
|
The every day family man
|
Yeah you won't read it in the headlines...
|
The every day family man
|
