Blue Collar Man (Long Nights) lyrics
Written by Tommy Shaw
Lead Vocals by Tommy Shaw Give me a job, give me security Give me a chance to survive I'm just a poor soul in the unemployment line My god, I'm hardly alive My mother and father, my wife and my friends You see them laugh in my face But I've got the power, and I've got the will I'm not a charity case I'll take the long night, impossible odds Keeping my eye to the keyhole If it takes all that to be just what I am Well I'm gonna be a blue collar man Make me an offer that I can't refuse Make me respectable, man This is my last time in the unemployment line So like it or not, I'll take the Long nights, impossible odds Keeping my back to the wall If it takes all night to be just what I am Well, I'm gonna be a blue collar man Keeping my mind on a better life Where happiness is only a heartbeat away Paradise can it be all I heard it was I close my eyes and maybe I'm already there I'll take those long nights, impossible odds Keeping my back to the wall All that to be just what I am Well I'm gonna be a blue collar man Do do do do do do do do do do do You don't understand Do do do do do do do do do do do I'll take those long nights, impossible odds Keeping my eye to the keyhole If it takes all night to be just who I am Well, I'd rather be a blue collar Got to be a blue collar Gonna be a blue collar man
