THANKFUL FOR THE BLUES
© Electric Babylon Music Author: M.M.
I cant help but be thankful even though I’ve got the blues, I cant help but
be thankful even though I’ve got the blues, don’t have a lot of money
don’t have a big fine house, but there’s always food on my table and I’ve
always got a decent pair of shoes.
The worst thing in the world is greed, we overlook the basic need, there’s
a hungry world to feed.
My heart goes out to the people of this world who are in real pain, My
heart goes out to the people of this world who are in real pain, me I’ve
got it pretty good I wish I could do something to help, but I/m just like
the weatherman even he cant stop the rain.
The best thing in the world is compassion, while we chase the latest
fashion, there are people living on a skeletons ration.
I cant help but have the blues even though god is in my heart, I cant help
but have the blues even though god is in my heart, I’m talking about the
spirit that binds us all together, and if we want to change the world god is
the best place to start.
The only thing in the world is god, even in the land of nod, be thankful
for what you’ve got.
