sam gleaves - ain't we brothers lyrics
[verse 1]
i was born here, just the same as you
another time, another day
i’m sure the good lord took his time
and made each of us just this way
i walked beside you step by step
and it never crossed my mind
that i would grow up one of the different kind
but that didn’t stop me from chopping the wood
scr_ping my knees like all boys should
goin’ down to the creek in the noonday sun
wringing out my shirt when the work got done
[chorus]
first things first, i’m a blue_collar man
with scars on my knuckles, dust on my hands
you probably wouldn’t have ever known
that i’ve got a man waiting on me at home
to tell you the truth, i don’t want to fight
i just want to say one thing outright to you
ain’t we flesh and blood all through
and ain’t we brothers too?
i took a job and worked right by you
walked down in that hole beside you
thought i heard some whisper sound
i got found out, word got around
i got made out for something i’m not
got called everything but a child of god
they didn’t mind to show it out in the parking lot
so i cut my coal with my head hung down
just like a stranger in my own town
i got bitter day by day
went home every night with the mess they made
[chorus]
first things first, i’m a blue_collar man
with scars on my knuckles, dust on my hands
you probably wouldn’t have ever known
that i’ve got a man waiting on me at home
to tell you the truth, i don’t want to fight
i just want to say one thing outright to you
ain’t we flesh and blood all through
and ain’t we brothers too?
[bridge]
tell me i’m not man enough to set foot in that mine
go on and tell me that once more, to my face this time
[chorus]
to tell you the truth, i don’t want to fight
i just want to say one thing outright
ain’t we flesh and blood all through
and ain’t we brothers too?
