Honest Man Lyrics - Honest Man - Matt Andersen

IT'S SO HARD GETTIN' BY THESE DAYS 

AS AN HONEST MAN 

I'M JUST TRYING TO DO MY PART, 

JUST WANT TO LEND A HAND 

WHEN I NEED IT, I CAN'T GET NO HELP 

EVERYBODY'S JUST SERVING THEMSELVES 

NOBODY'S GOT TIME FOR AN HONEST MAN 

ALL THE MOVERS AND THE SHAKERS 

AND THE POWERS THAT BE 

THEY TURN THEIR BACKS ON EACH OTHER, 

THEY TURN THEIR BACKS ON ME 

NOW I JUST WANT TO KNOW WHERE I STAND 

AM I A MOUNTAIN OR A GRAIN OF SAND 

HAS ANYBODY GOT TIME FOR AN HONEST MAN 

WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO TO GET YOUR ATTENTION 

I HAVE SO MUCH SAY, WHY DON'T YOU JUST LISTEN 

IT'S JUST SO HARD OUT HERE 

FOR AN HONEST MAN 

I KEEP TRYIN', I KEEP TRYIN' TO DO ALL I CAN 

I KEEP MY HEAD UP ALONG THE WAY 

THINKIN' MAYBE, JUST MAYBE SOMEDAY 

SOMEBODY'S GONNA HAVE TIME FOR AN HONEST MAN
