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 learnin' From the cradle to the grave We're all weak, we're all strong We're all right and we're all wrong When time runs out We all end up in common ground We're the haves and we're the have-nots And we've 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 We're all livin', we're all learnin' From 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 learnin' From 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
