Let's d rink to the hard working people
Let's d rink to the lowly of birth
Raise your g lass to the good and the evil
Let's d rink to the salt of the earth
Say a p rayer for the common foot soldier
Spare a t hought for his back breaking work
Say a p rayer for his wife and his children
Who b urn the fires and who still till the earth
And when I search a faceless crowd
A swirling mass of gray and black and white
They don't look real to me
In fact, they look so strange
Raise your g lass to the hard working people
Let's d rink to the uncounted heads
Let's t hink of the wavering millions
Who need l eaders but get gamblers instead
Spare a t hought for the stay-at-home voter
His e mpty eyes gaze at strange beauty shows
And a p arade of the gray suited grafters
A c hoice of cancer or polio
And when I look in the faceless crowd
A swirling mass of grays and black and white
They don't look real to me
Or don't they look so strang e
Let's d rink to the hard working people
Let's t hink of the lowly of birth
Spare a t hought for the rag taggy people
Let's d rink to the salt of the earth
Let's d rink to the hard working people
Let's d rink to the salt of the earth
Let's d rink to the two thousand million
Let's t hink of the humble of birth
