[Verse 1]

I'm a blue collar man, had a hammer in my hand

For the last few years of my life

Workin' a double overtime while you sleep alone at night

Baby, I know it's been a long hard ride


[Pre-Chorus 1]

Sometimes I forget to say "I love you"

But, baby, please know that I do, yeah


[Chorus]

I live this life everyday, I make my share of mistakes

And every lesson I've learned, I've learned the hard way

I do the best that I can and I hope you understand

After all, I'm just a man


[Verse 2]

I found a postcard that you saved, it's turned yellow with age

Of a beautiful place in the sun

We've been sayin' every year that we're gonna go there

And run away, just the two of us


[Pre-Chorus 2]

Well, I put that picture back on your dresser

Grab my keys, I gotta get back to work, yeah


[Chorus]

I live this life everyday, I make my share of mistakes

And every lesson I've learned, I've learned the hard way

I do the best that I can and I hope you understand

After all, I'm just a man


[Interlude]


[Chorus]

I live this life everyday, I make my share of mistakes

And every lesson I've learned, I've learned the hard way

I do the best that I can and I hope you understand

After all, I'm just a man

After all, I'm just a man


[Outro]

That's all I am

Baby, I'm just a man

Mmm-hmm
