White Collar Man - Linda Davis

Miscellaneous

White Collar Man

You sit in church on Sunday

Running figures in your head

You plan tomorrow’s meetings

As I slip off to bed

No time for the children’s homework

Lord, you never take a rest

You can’t let the simple things

Interfere with your success

White collar man

With a briefcase in your hand

Can you hear your children call from your backyard

They need you in their world right now

More than things that you grew up without

Precious time is running through your hands

White collar man

You can’t unwind on the weekends

Like you did in our younger days

The deadlines and promotions

I can read them on your face

Your family need attention

And you need some time alone

What you gave at the office

There’s not much left when you get home

White collar man

With a briefcase in your hand

Can you hear your children call from your backyard

They need you in their world right now

More than things that you grew up without

Precious time is running through your hands

White collar man

Can’t you see they need you in their world right now

More than things that you grew up without

Precious time is running through your hands
