Blue Collar Man (Long Nights) [Caught in the Act]

[Verse 1]

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

I'm not a charity case

[Hook]

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

I'm gonna be a blue collar man

[Verse 2]

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

I'm gonna 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

Ooh yeah

[Chorus]

I'll take those long nights, impossible odds

Keeping my back to the wall

All that to be just what I am

I'm gonna 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 eye to the keyhole

If it takes all that to be just what I am

I'm gonna be a blue collar

Gotta be a blue collar

Gonna be a blue collar man

[Outro]

Alright!

Believe it
