Just an Ordinary Guy

He’s just an ordinary guy.
He doesn’t occupy
A seat of government
Or anything like that.

He works hard every day,
Saturday brings home his pay—
He may take a glass of beer
Sometimes at that.

He never had his name in lights,
He’s never front page news.
He stands up for his rights,
Yet doesn’t beef or sing the blues.

But when his country gets in trouble
And it’s time to fight and die,
He doesn’t ask for a deferment—
He’s just an ordinary guy.

Listen, Hitler!
About this ordinary guy,
You may wonder why
He’s taken such an awful
Hate to you.

But you’ll never understand
His kind of man.
You won’t need to—
You’ll be dead when he gets through.

He doesn’t bully or act rough.
You never hear him bluff.
But there’s one thing certain, Nazi,
He won’t stand for your type of stuff.

He just doesn’t like the idea
Of men being in a cage,
And the way you try to boss folks
Puts him in a rage.

You’ve got the whole round world in trouble
With your boastings and your lies.
But you’ll never beat us, Hitler—
Not us ordinary guys!
