Robert W Service - The Ordinary Man
Work rating: High

If you and I should chance to meet,
I guess you wouldn`t care;
I`m sure you`d pass me in the street
As if I wasn`t there;
You`d never look me in the face,
My modest mug to scan,
Because I`m just a commonplace
        And Ordinary Man.

But then, it may be, you are too
A guy of every day,
Who does the job he`s told to do
And takes the wife his pay;
Who makes a home and kids his care,
And works with pick or pen. . . .
Why, Pal, I guess we`re just a pair
        Of Ordinary Men.

We plug away and make no fuss,
Our feats are never crowned;
And yet it`s common coves like us
Who make the world go round.
And as we steer a steady course
By God`s predestined plan,
Hats off to that almighty Force:
        THE ORDINARY MAN.
