In a dusty town a clock struck high noon Two men stood face to face. One wore black and one wore white But of fear there wasn t a trace. Two hundred years later two hot rods drag race through the very same place And a half a million people moved in to pick up the pace. A factory full of people Makin parts to go to outer space. A train load of people They were aimin for another place. Out of town people. There s a man in the window with a big cigar Says everything s for sale. The house and the boat and the railroad car. The owner s gotta go to jail. He acquired these things from a life of crime Now he s selling them to raise his bail. He was rippin off the people. Sellin guns to the underground. Tryin to help the people Lose their ass for a piece of ground. Rippin off the people. Skimmin the top when there was no one around. Tryin to help the people. He was dealing antiques in a hardware store But he sure had a lot to hide. He had a backroom full of the guns of war And a ton of ammunition besides. Wellhe walked with a cane Kept a bolt on the door with five pit bulls inside. Just a warning to the people Who might try to break in at night. Protection from the people Selling safety in the darkest night. Tryin to help the people. Get the drugs to the street all right. Ordinary people. Wellit s hard to say where a man goes wrong Might be here and it might be there. What starts out weak might get too strong If you can t tell foul from fair. But it s hard to judge from an angry throng Of hands stretched into the air. The vigilante people. Takin law into their own hands. Conscientious people. Crackin down on the druglord s land. Government people. Confiscatin all the dealer s land. Patch-of-ground people. Down at the factory they re puttin new windows in. The vandals made a mess of things And the homeless just walked right in. Wellthey worked here once and they live here now But they might work here again They re ordinary people. And they re livin in a nightmare. Hard workin people. And they don t know how they got there. Ordinary people. And they think that you don t care. Hard workin people. Down on the assembly line they keep puttin the same thing out. But the people today they just ain t buyin . Nobody can figure it out. Wellthey try like hell to build a quality end They re workin hard without a doubt They re ordinary people. And the dollar s what it s all about. Hard workin people. But the customers are walkin out. Lee Iacocca people. Yeahthey look but they just don t buy. Hard workin people. Two out of work models and a fashion slave Try to dance away the Michelob night. The bartender poured himself another drink While two drunks sat watchin the fight. The champ went down then he got up again And then he went out like a light. He was fightin for the people But his timing wasn t right. For Las Vegas people Who came to see a Las Vegas fight. High rollin people Takin limos though the neon night. Fightin for the people. And then a new Rolls Royce and a company car They went flyin down the street. Each one tryin to make it to the gate Before employees manned the fleet. The trucks full of products for the modern home Set to roll out into the street Of downtown people Tryin to make their way to work. Nose-to-the-stone people Some are saintsand some are jerks. Hard workin people Stoppin for a drink on the way to work. Alcoholic people Yeahthey re takin it one dayone day at a time. Out on the railroad track they re cleanin up number 9. They re scrubbin the boiler down wellshe really is lookin fine. Ahshe s lookin so good they re gonna bring her back on line. Ordinary people. They re gonna bring the good things back. Nose-to-the stone people. Put the business back on track. Ordinary people I got faith in the regular kind. Hard workin people. Patch-of-ground people.
