Bachman Turner Overdrive - Average Man lyrics
rate me<b>Average Man</b> by <i>Bachman-turner Overdrive</i><br />
They say I make too much money, to fit in my pocket
Everyone wants to but no one can top it
I meet more people in a week on the line
Than one man can dream of in his whole lifetime
Can you understand, I&#039;m an average man
Tryin&#039; to make a livin&#039; do the best that I can
Can you understand, I&#039;m an average man
But my name is in lights, lights, lights
They stop and stare at our houses and farms
They settled for less, we reached for the stars
They&#039;re wishin&#039; not workin&#039; and that&#039;s not the way
For what comes too easy is thrown away
Chorus
We got the future to win, nothing to lose
What&#039;s done is behind us, we live how we choose
Everyone&#039;s different, but one thing&#039;s the same
You can&#039;t be a winner if you don&#039;t play the game
Can you understand, I&#039;m an average man
Tryin&#039; to make a livin&#039; do the best that I can
Can you understand, I&#039;m an average man
But my name is in lights
