Lyrics to Common Ground
There's a suit and tie leavin' at five for a waitress scrapin' by on minimum wage
There's a preacher man in a Cadillac drivin' by a cardboard sign that says "Jesus Saves"
There's a hometown quarterback with his bags packed all dressed up in army green
Just fightin' for the right to see ol' glory fly and someone to take a knee
And we're all on a different journey
We're all findin' our own way
We're all livin', we're all earnin'
From the the cradle to the grave
We're all weak, we're all strong
We're all right and we're all wrong
And when time runs out
We all end up in common ground
We're the haves and we're the have nots
And we all got reasons why we do or don't
But the lines that separate us
While we're here gonna disappear when we're gone
'Cause we're all on a different journey
We're all findin' our own way
And we're all livin', we're all earnin'
From the the cradle to the grave
We're all weak, we're all strong
We're all right and we're all wrong
And when time runs out
We all end up
Losin' all these labels that we wear
So we can find it here or we can find it there
'Cause we're all on a different journey
We're all findin' our own way
We're all livin', we're all earnin'
From the the cradle to the grave
We're all weak, we're all strong
We're all right and we're all wrong
And when time runs out
We all end up in common ground
Common ground
There's a preacher man in a Cadillac drivin' by a cardboard sign that says "Jesus Saves"
There's a hometown quarterback with his bags packed all dressed up in army green
Just fightin' for the right to see ol' glory fly and someone to take a knee
And we're all on a different journey
We're all findin' our own way
We're all livin', we're all earnin'
From the the cradle to the grave
We're all weak, we're all strong
We're all right and we're all wrong
And when time runs out
We all end up in common ground
We're the haves and we're the have nots
And we all got reasons why we do or don't
But the lines that separate us
While we're here gonna disappear when we're gone
'Cause we're all on a different journey
We're all findin' our own way
And we're all livin', we're all earnin'
From the the cradle to the grave
We're all weak, we're all strong
We're all right and we're all wrong
And when time runs out
We all end up
Losin' all these labels that we wear
So we can find it here or we can find it there
'Cause we're all on a different journey
We're all findin' our own way
We're all livin', we're all earnin'
From the the cradle to the grave
We're all weak, we're all strong
We're all right and we're all wrong
And when time runs out
We all end up in common ground
Common ground
