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
