There's plenty of food
|
on the table
|
Lots of love in the house
|
The children all do what
|
they're able to do
|
We got so much to be happy about.
|
|
I got a woman standing beside me
|
She really knows
|
how to stand by her man
|
She's strong and she's soft
|
and she's honest to me
|
She really helps me
|
to be a good man.
|
|
But nothing is perfect
|
in God's perfect plan
|
Look in the shadow to see
|
He only gave us the good things
|
so we'd understand
|
What life without them would be.
|
|
There's plenty of wheat
|
on the prairies
|
Lots of coal in the mines
|
We got soldiers so strong
|
they can bury their dead
|
And still not go back
|
shooting blind.
|
|
There's women and men
|
on the workforce
|
Doing forty hours
|
plus overtime
|
So the hostages
|
held at the airport
|
Can come home
|
to something worthwhile.
|
|
But nothing is perfect
|
in God's perfect plan
|
Look in the shadow to see
|
He only gave us the good things
|
so we'd understand
|
What life without them would be.
|
|
And there's plenty of food
|
on the table
|
Lots of love in the house
|
The children all do
|
what they're able to do
|
We got so much to be happy about.
|
|
I got a woman standing beside me
|
She really knows
|
how to stand by her man
|
She's strong and she's soft
|
and she's honest to me
|
It really helps me
|
to be a good man.
|
|
But nothing is perfect
|
in God's perfect plan
|
He only gave us the good things
|
so we'd understand.
|
No, nothing is perfect
|
in God's perfect plan.
