[00:16.77]Let's drink to the hard working people
[00:22.77]Let's drink to the lowly of birth
[00:29.70]Raise your glass to the good and the evil
[00:36.42]Let's drink to the salt of the earth
[00:43.08]Say a prayer for the common foot soldier
[00:50.19]Spare a thought for his back breaking work
[00:54.30]Say a prayer for his wife and his children
[01:04.59]Who burn the fires and who still till the earth
[01:24.21]And when I search a faceless crowd
[01:30.84]A swirling mass of gray and
[01:33.72]Black and white
[01:36.00]They don't look real to me
[01:40.98]In fact, they look so strange
[01:49.44]Raise your glass to the hard working people
[01:57.15]Let's drink to the uncounted heads
[02:07.23]Let's think of the wavering millions
[02:10.71]Who need leaders but get gamblers instead
[02:14.58]Spare a thought for the stay-at-home voter
[02:22.08]His empty eyes gaze at strange beauty shows
[02:32.40]And a parade of the gray suited grafters
[02:35.10]A choice of cancer or polio
[02:58.50]And when I look in the faceless crowd
[03:05.04]A swirling mass of grays and
[03:08.19]Black and white
[03:11.10]They don't look real to me
[03:17.19]Or don't they look so strange
[03:26.13]Let's drink to the hard working people
[03:40.89]Let's think of the lowly of birth
[03:41.61]Spare a thought for the rag taggy people
[03:58.08]Let's drink to the salt of the earth
[04:08.07]Let's drink to the hard working people
[04:10.95]Let's drink to the salt of the earth
[04:16.32]Let's drink to the two thousand million
[04:19.44]Let's think of the humble of birth
