[00:00.000]Ordinary Man (Live) - Christy Moore
[00:56.794]I＇m an ordinary man nothing special nothing grand
[01:01.194]I＇ve had to work for everything I own
[01:05.624]I never asked for a lot I was happy with what I got
[01:10.614]Enough to keep my family and my home
[01:15.044]Now they say that times are hard and they＇ve handed me my cards
[01:19.674]They say there＇s not the work to go around
[01:24.604]And when the whistle blows the gates will finally close
[01:29.164]Tonight they＇re going to shut this factory down
[01:32.964]Then they＇ll tear it d-o-w-n
[01:38.451]I never missed a day nor went on strike for better pay
[01:43.381]For twenty years I served them best I could
[01:47.720]With a handshake and a cheque it seems so easy to forget
[01:53.040]Loyalty through the bad times and through good
[01:57.090]The owner says he＇s sad to see that things have got so bad
[02:01.780]But the captains of industry won＇t let him lose
[02:06.470]He still smokes his cigar and drives a car
[02:11.570]And still he takes his family on a cruise he＇ll never lose
[02:21.050]Well it seems to me such a cruel irony
[02:25.250]He＇s richer now then he ever was before
[02:29.990]Now my cheque is spent and I can＇t afford the rent
[02:34.920]There＇s one law for the rich one for the poor
[02:39.420]Every day I＇ve tried to salvage some of my pride
[02:43.940]To find some work so＇s I might pay my way
[02:48.560]Oh but everywhere I go the answer＇s always no
[02:53.690]There＇s no work for anyone here today no work today no work today
[03:07.540]And so condemned I stand just an ordinary man
[03:11.710]Like thousands beside me in the queue
[03:16.330]I watch my darling wife trying to make the best of life
[03:21.530]And God knows what the kids are going to do
[03:26.390]Now that we are faced with this human waste
[03:30.140]A generation cast aside
[03:34.820]And as long as I live I never will forgive
[03:39.370]You＇ve stripped me of my dignity and pride you＇ve stripped me bare
[03:47.941]You＇ve stripped me bare
[03:52.621]No work today
[03:57.311]No work today

Ordinary Man (Live) - Christy Moore
I＇m an ordinary man nothing special nothing grand
I＇ve had to work for everything I own
I never asked for a lot I was happy with what I got
Enough to keep my family and my home
Now they say that times are hard and they＇ve handed me my cards
They say there＇s not the work to go around
And when the whistle blows the gates will finally close
Tonight they＇re going to shut this factory down
Then they＇ll tear it d-o-w-n
I never missed a day nor went on strike for better pay
For twenty years I served them best I could
With a handshake and a cheque it seems so easy to forget
Loyalty through the bad times and through good
The owner says he＇s sad to see that things have got so bad
But the captains of industry won＇t let him lose
He still smokes his cigar and drives a car
And still he takes his family on a cruise he＇ll never lose
Well it seems to me such a cruel irony
He＇s richer now then he ever was before
Now my cheque is spent and I can＇t afford the rent
There＇s one law for the rich one for the poor
Every day I＇ve tried to salvage some of my pride
To find some work so＇s I might pay my way
Oh but everywhere I go the answer＇s always no
There＇s no work for anyone here today no work today no work today
And so condemned I stand just an ordinary man
Like thousands beside me in the queue
I watch my darling wife trying to make the best of life
And God knows what the kids are going to do
Now that we are faced with this human waste
A generation cast aside
And as long as I live I never will forgive
You＇ve stripped me of my dignity and pride you＇ve stripped me bare
You＇ve stripped me bare
No work today
No work today
