Life takes its toll on the heart and soul, but I'm doing the best I can. Lord hear the prayer of a Common Man. A little girl needed braces but it cost a couple thousand bucks. She has a beautiful smile but it'll be awhile on my new/used pickup truck. This house of cards I built is mortgaged to the hills and its sinking in the sand. Lord hear the prayer of a Common Man. Alleluia. Is anybody out there? Alleluia Does anybody care? Life takes its toll on the heart and soul, but I'm doing the best I can. Lord hear the prayer of a Common Man. I'm not looking for charity, I just need some clarity. I've got people counting on me. And I'm tired that's all I'm up against the wall. Lord hear me when I call. Alleluia. I know your up there.
