He gets up before the sunrise every morning
Just to praise the Lord and waken up the day
Takes his King James to the table, sips his coffee,
And gathers strength as he turns each yellowed page

Oh, those words are the only truths he lives by
And every neighbor’s need becomes his very own
If he looks you in the eye you know he means it
And the man you see is the same good man at home

Chorus:

He is // an every day man
With an every day life
Don’t seem like much
Looking in from the outside
But what you cannot see
Is what you need to understand
It's an every day faith
That makes an every day man

A whole day's worth of work is on his farm boots
The sun is setting as wrestles with his boys
Then he holds the only girl he’s ever wanted
And he loves 'em all like he never had a choice

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge: 

One day his face will show the weathered lines
Age will always chase us down and steal our time
But everything he sowed, he'll surely reap
'Cause everything he taught will help us be (like)

(Repeat Chorus)
