lyrics

Just an ordinary man
Had some troubles and some joy
Sometimes happy, sometimes sad
Had some children, girls and boys
Just an ordinary man
Trav'ling towards another dawn
Looking for a brand new start
Working just to get along

We are always looking for
Extraordinary men
Women strong and brave
To change the world we're living in
The super hero ones
Who stand above us all
Who will come and rescue us
Who will answer freedom's call

An ordinary man
Lived an ordinary way
We watched while he died
On that stifling night in May
And we were so ashamed
We could not turn away
An ordinary man
Changed the world that day

An ordinary man
Changed the world that day
An ordinary man
Say his name
George Floyd
