Verse 1:
Busted knuckles and a weary soul
Clockin' in to lose control
Sweat-soaked shirt and a fever dream
Livin' life downstream
Pre-Chorus:
The fat cats, they just keep gettin' fatter
White collars, it don't even matter
To blue collars, we're climbin' up ladders
That never seem to reach the sky
Chorus:
No one cares for the common man
The blue-collar, white-collar, we're all in the jam
Screamin' loud but they don't understand
No one cares, no one cares for the common man
Verse 2:
Politicians in their fancy clothes
Makin' promises that decompose
Factory lines and desk-bound lives
We’re all just tryin’ to survive
Pre-Chorus:
They’ll shake hands and they’ll kiss babies
But they’ll forget about us, maybe
Their pockets full, our hope is hazy
In this land of smoke and lies
Chorus:
No one cares for the common man
The blue-collar, white-collar, we're all in the jam
Screamin' loud but they don't understand
No one cares, no one cares for the common man
Bridge:
We stand together, we won’t back down
With calloused hands in a ghost town
Raise our voices, make ‘em hear the sound
You can’t keep us underground
Chorus:
No one cares for the common man
The blue-collar, white-collar, we're all in the jam
Screamin' loud but they don't understand
No one cares, no one cares for the common man
Outro:
So here’s to those who work and bleed
From the mines to the corporate greed
We’ll find our strength, yes, we’ll plant the seed
No one cares, but we'll make ‘em see
No one cares, for the common man
No one cares, for you and me
Chords not available
Beat not available
They don't care for the blue collar the white collar or me
