Lyrics

Just A Man

Now I ain't sayin I've seen all I can

But I've seen the red dirt and I've seen the pink sand

And I've seen the sunrise in the heart of Japan

And I could see you're no monster, you're just a man

You're just a man

Now I know you have dreams and I know you got plans

They're nothing like mine but I understand

And it scares me to death you got the world in the palm of your hands

I know we are no god, you're just a man

You're just a man

Now I don't know much but I

Know where I stand

I stand with the persecuted, the poor and the damned

When they're desperate and drowning they'll reach for your hand

And you'll say I'm no savior, I'm just a man

I'm just a man

Well I'm just a man

Well I'm just a man

Well I'm just a man
