Testi

He wasn't born in a cabin
He never fought in a war
But he learned to smile and quote Abe Lincoln
And get his foot in the door
He knows all your problems
He shares all of your dreams
When he laughs his wife laughs too
As they ride in their limousine
So wave the flag and take a stand
Stand in line to shake his hand
He says he's your friend
A friend of the common man
He's got all the answers
The good days will be back soon
There's one more stock in a copper mine
And a hungry child in each classroom
So wave the flag and take a stand
Stand in line to shake his hand
He says he's your friend
A friend of the common man
Everybody works day to day to get by
Every morning searching for a reason to try
Ain't he the friend of the common man?
He wasn't born in a cabin
He never fought in a war
But he learned to smile and quote Abe Lincoln
And get his foot in the door
With one hand on the Bible
He swears he's only here to serve
While everyone says for better or worse
We get what we deserve
So wave the flag and take a stand
Stand in line to shake his hand
He says he's your friend
A friend of the common man
So wave the flag and take a stand
Stand in line to shake his hand
He says he's your friend
A friend of the common man
