Blue Collar Man (Long Nights)

Tommy Shaw

[Verse 1]
Well, 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
I see them laugh in my face
But I've got the power, and I've got the will
And I'm not a charity case

[Hook]
And I'll take those long nights, impossible odds
Keeping my eye to the keyhole
If it takes all that to be just what I am
Well, I gotta be a blue collar man

[Verse 2]
So 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

[Chorus]
Long nights, impossible odds
Keeping my back to the wall
If it takes all that to be just what I am
Well, I gotta be a blue collar man

[Bridge 1]
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

Hey, hey, hey, oh yeah

[Chorus]
Well, I'll take those long nights, impossible odds
Keeping my eye to the keyhole
And if it takes all that to be just what I am
Well, I gotta be a blue collar man

[Bridge 2]
Do do do do do do do do
(You don't understand)
Do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do

[Chorus]
I'll take those long nights, impossible odds
Keeping my back to the wall
All that to be just what I am
Well, I gotta be a blue collar
Gonna be a blue collar
Gotta be a blue collar man

[Outro]
Alright!
Believe it!
