lyrics

THANK GOODNESS FOR THE GIVING PEOPLE
-------------------------------------------------------

HE DOESN’T KNOW WHO SHE IS
AS SHE SITS IN HER CAR
TRYING TO HOLD BACK A TEAR
WAITING ALL DAY
WITH THOUSANDS OF CARS
NEVER THOUGHT SHE’D END UP HERE
HE KNOWS HOW SHE FEELS
AS SHE SWALLOWS HER PRIDE
HE’S BEEN THERE IN HER SHOES
SHE LOOKS IN HIS EYES
CAN BARELY SAY “THANKS”
AS HE GIVES HER A BOX OF FOOD

(chorus) THANK GOODNESS FOR THE GIVING PEOPLE
ALL THOSE HEARTS AND SOULS (ALL THOSE SAINTS AND SOULS)
GIVING’S HOW THEY’RE LIVING
AND IT’S SOMETHING THAT NEVER GETS OLD
IT’S JUST THE WAY THEY ROLL

HE’S BEEN MAKING HIS MEALS
IN THE BACK OF HIS TRUCK
TRYIN’ TO SAVE MONEY AND TIME
DRIVIN’ ALL NIGHT
GOT A LOADED-UP RIG
WITH URGENTLY NEEDED SUPPLIES
HIS FAM’LY BACK HOME
HASN’T SEEN HIM IN WEEKS¬
CAN’T WAIT TO TALK ON THE PHONE
STILL THOUSANDS OF MILES
AN EIGHTEEN-WHEELER
HERO WHO WORKS ALL ALONE (to chorus)

(bridge) THE DOCTOR RETIRED WHO’S STILL SAVING LIVES
THE TEACHER WHO’S DRIVING BY THE HOUSE TO SAY HI
THE FARMWORKER WORKING IN THE FIELDS OF GREEN
THE RABBI AND REVERAND ZOOMING HOPE AND PRAYER
HOPE AND PRAYER ON THE SCREEN (to chorus)

(C) ROBERT BIDNEY
