GC
As the Maid poured wine and we began to dine
DG
I knew I was feeling out of place
C
At a table as large as a river barge
DG
And I love you written all on your face
C
I appreciate you hospitality
GD
But I wish that we would go
GC
Let me drive us to McDonalds and I'll talk to you
DG
Concerning something you should really know
I'm just a common man
C
Drive a common van
GD
My dog ain't got a pedigree
G
If I have my say
C
Gonna stay that way
GEm\
Cause high-browed people lose their sanity
G
And a common man is what I'll be
C
I'll take a Chevrolet just anyday
DG
So give your Daddy back his Mercedes Benz
C
And there's some common people I hang out with
DG
They're my good time buddies - they're my friends
C
And I'd rather chug-a-lug a mug of Budweiser Beer
GD
Than sip a crystal glass of wine
GC
So won't you make your mind up to believe in me
DG
And leave this high living world behind
Chorus
CAm
Yes I'm happy just being free
CAm
And I'm happy just being me
CD
And I hope that you will see
