Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 your judge our minds
Blue collar
[Verse 2]
Sleep your sleep, I'm awake and alive
I keep late hours, you're nine to five
So I would like you to know I need the quiet hours
To create in this world of mine
Blue collar
[Verse 3]
I'd like you to know at four in the morning, things are coming to mind
All I've seen, all I've done and those I hope to find
I'd like to remind you at the four in the morning, my world is very still
The air is fresh under diamond skies, makes me glad to be alive
[Verse 4]
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
Oh, blue collar
