Walk your street

And I'll walk mine

And should we meet

Would you spare me some time



'Cause you should see my world

Meet my kind

Before you judge our minds



Blue collar



Sleep your sleep

I'm awake and alive

I keep late hours

Your nine to five



So I would like you know I need the quiet hours

To create in this world of mine



Blue collar



I'd like you to know at four in the morning

Things are coming mine

All I've seen, all I've done

And those I hope to find



I'd like to remind you at four in the morning

My world is very still

The air is fresh under diamond skies

Makes me glad to be alive



You keep that beat

And I keep time

Your restless face

Is no longer mine



I rest my feet

While the world's in heat

And I wish that you could do the same



Blue collar
