- with Carole King
|
|
College kids turning 21 in their senior year
|
Spring break was here
|
They headed South but not for sun on their skin
|
Where the storms had been
|
It was hard fixing windows and shingles and doors
|
And tired never felt so good before
|
|
Chorus:
|
Everyday people
|
Are the ones who are making miracles
|
And it's beautiful
|
Everyday people
|
Lifting up the world, like an answered prayer
|
l thank God they're there, they're the ones who care
|
Everyday people
|
|
Doctor said. "Good news, we caught it soon enough
|
We can clear this up."
|
But she's thirty and single with two kids to raise
|
Times are tough these days
|
So her friends made some calls and the word spread around
|
How her bills got paid, she don't know how
|
|
Repeat Chorus:
|
|
A little girl takes her mama's hand and walks inside
|
Saying please don't cry
|
As the people who built this house just for them
|
Laugh through the rears as a family moves in
|
|
Repeat Chorus:
|
|
Everyday people
|
Everyday people
|
