Blue Collar Man from the Styx LP "Pieces of Eight" 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`re seen 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 those Long nights, impossible odds Keeping my eye on 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 those Long nights, impossible odds Keeping my back to the wall if it takes all night to be just who 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 head it was I close my eyes and maybe I`m already there.
