Lyrics
I'm an ordinary man, nothing special nothing grand
I've had to work for everything I own
I never asked for a lot, I was happy with what I got
Enough to keep my family and my home
Now they say that times are hard and they've handed me my cards
They say there's not the work to go around
And when the whistle blows, the gates will finally close
Tonight they're going to shut this factory down
Then they'll tear it d-o-w-n
I never missed a day nor went on strike for better pay
For twenty years I served them best I could
Now with a handshake and a cheque it seems so easy to forget
Loyalty through the bad times and through good
The owner says he's sad to see that things have got so bad
But the captains of industry won't let him lose
He still drives a car and smokes his cigar
And still he takes his family on a cruise, he'll never lose
Well it seems to me such a cruel irony
He's richer now than he ever was before
Now my cheque is spent and I can't afford the rent
There's one law for the rich, one for the poor
Every day I've tried to salvage some of my pride
To find some work so's I might pay my way
Oh but everywhere I go, the answer's always no
There's no work for anyone here today, no work today
I'm an ordinary man, nothing special nothing grand
I've had to work for everything I own
I never asked for a lot, I was happy with what I got
Enough to keep my family and my home
And so condemned I stand just an ordinary man
Like thousands beside me in the queue
I watch my darling wife trying to make the best of life
And God knows what the kids are going to do
Now that we are faced with this human waste
A generation cast aside
And as long as I live, I never will forgive
You've stripped me of my dignity and pride, you've stripped me bare
You've stripped me bare, you've stripped me bare

I'm stunned ..Christy came up to me today whilst I was busking and said some nice things , I didn't realise it was him , he had a bobble type hat on , then after a minute or two I said , you look like Christy Moore, he said I am , we chatted a bit more , I'm homeless at the moment , he gave me a warm long hug and a large note ..wow , I'm still buzzing four hours later ..

Richard, I'm glad to see that you're on the mend. I'm also sorry that you had to face abuse from people. Alas, the technical innovations also bring out the worst in people; the spineless, as a result malicious little people have the chance to hide behind a screen and insult others. I don't live in Ireland anymore; one reason is the cynicism, bigotry and downright malicious comments that are, sadly, passed of a part of "the craic." May God bless you, brother, I'll finish up by quoting you a great Irishman who also faced hardship yet came through it all, Frank McCourt: Bollox the begrudgers.
