Hear people complaining
|
They say they got dealt
|
The roughest deal
|
They cry when it's raining
|
No bread for the latest meal
|
But if there's no heaven
|
You can be sure there's no hell
|
And if there's no devil
|
There won't be no god to hear you yell
|
See people get holy
|
They're turning some plain water to wine
|
They're living life slowly
|
They can look up and see
|
The day turn fine
|
But ask them the question
|
And no answer is there
|
Whether you're eastern or western
|
There's only one pace that we can share
|
|
One day at a time
|
|
See people get sickly
|
The shock passes down from bad to worse
|
The backs up and prickly
|
Roll in a ball and pretend
|
You got no purse
|
But if this continues where does it all end?
|
I'm in the retinue
|
Till i see broken wishes mend
|
|
One day at a time
|
|
So when you get lonely
|
Be good to yourself and bless the day
|
Know you are the only
|
One who can deliver what i say
|
Try fighting the fever
|
Try popping the pill
|
Become a believer
|
Try separating life from still
|
|
One day at a time
|
|
