Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.”

As the maid poured wine and we prepared to dine
I knew I was feelin' out of place
At a table as large as a river barge
And "I love you" written all on your face
I appreciate you hospitality
But I wish that we would go
Let me drive us to McDonalds and I'll talk to you
Concernin' somethin' you should really know
I'm just a common man, drive a common van
My dog ain't got a pedigree
If I have my say, it gonna stay that way
'Cause high-browed people lose their sanity
And a common man is what I'll be
I'll take a Chevrolet just any day
So give your Daddy back his Mercedes Benz
And there's some common people that I hang out with
They're my good time buddies, they're my friends
And I'd rather chug-a-lug a mug of Budweiser Beer
Than sip a crystal glass of wine
So won't you make your mind up to believe in me
And leave this high livin' world behind
I'm just a common man, drive a common van
My dog ain't got a pedigree
If I have my say it's gonna stay that way
'Cause high-browed people lose their sanity
And a common man is what I'll be
And I'm happy just being free
And I'm happy just being me
And I hope that you will see
I'm just a common man, drive a common van
My dog ain't got a pedigree
If I have my say, it gonna stay that way
'Cause high-browed people lose their sanity
And a common man is what I'll be
Sentence Prayer
Almighty God;
Only you are uncommon and amazing.
Help me to never think too highly of myself
May I be a man who is grateful for the little things such as a
McDonald Hamburger,
New friends, New sights and familiar sights.
Jesus, thank you for dying and setting my free from the
bondage of sin.
Holy Spirit, teach me to be happy just being me.
Amen
