There are people stepping on my toes
People on my mind
Some of them you have to leave behind

People of my kind
How can I be lonely
With you people all around


Play the wheel of fortune
Playin' in a band

Lady luck will roll the dice
Future's looking grand now
If you need a good advice

Every option has a price

Common people, everyday people

The kind you like to meet
It makes the world go round
Common people, everyday people

The bold an beautiful all on common ground

Every morning like a clockwork

My time is set
Every evening I come home
All in a sweat

You can always count on common people
Like you and me


Oh, common people
There will always be, oh, common people
Oh, common people
