We are rolling, good      Little Jimmy just bought high top sneakers   Wants to fly high like his heroes can   He?s got the smile like Michael Jordan   In the schoolyard, Jimmy, he?s the man      I?m sitting here watching his heart beating   He?s ten feet tall, all five feet four of him   Come six o?clock working out his foul shot   Who we fooling, Mama?s calling, she smiles and says      You and me, we?re ordinary people   Living in our ordinary lives   We can be ordinary people   These are extraordinary times      She lives alone, got four kids through high school   She cleans houses and she takes in wash at night   You?d never know that she don?t have much   Because she?s rich with the things money can?t buy      She don?t need clothes, she don?t want diamonds   Don?t need a brand new car to drive in   What she?s got is love and that?s a lot   At least it?s a good start      You and me, we?re ordinary people   Living in our ordinary lives   We can be ordinary people   These are extraordinary times      Everybody wants to be somebody   Everybody wants to be someone   We only want to watch the game on Sunday   Sit back, catch a little buzz      Ain?t nobody wants to be nobody   Everybody wants a little love   Everybody wants to be the hero   And ride into the setting sun      You and me, we?re ordinary people   Living in our ordinary lives   We can be ordinary people   These are extraordinary times      And I?ve got dreams like ordinary people   I can see them when I close my eyes at night   Can?t you see we?re ordinary people   These are extraordinary times      Hey, hey, hey, hey   Hey, hey, hey, hey   Hey, hey, hey, hey   ...
