Man made the buildings that reach for the sky |
|
And man made the motorcar and learned how to fly |
|
But he didn't make the flowers and he didn't make the trees |
|
And he didn't make you and he didn't make me |
|
And he got no right to turn us into machines |
|
He's got no right at all |
|
'Cause we are all God's children |
|
And he got no right to change us |
|
Oh, we gotta go back the way the good lord made us all |
|
Don't want this world to change me |
|
I wanna go back the way the good lord made me |
|
Same lungs that he gave me to breath with |
|
Same eyes he gave me to see with |
|
Oh, the rich man, the poor man, the saint and the sinner |
|
The wise man, the simpleton, the loser and the winner |
|
We are all the same to Him |
|
Stripped of our clothes and all the things we own |
|
The day that we are born |
|
We are all God's children |
|
And they got no right to change us |
|
Oh, we gotta go back the way the good lord made |
|
Oh, the good lord made us all |
|
And we are all his children |
|
And they got no right to change us |
|
Oh, we gotta go back the way the good lord made us all |
|
Yeah, we gotta go back the way the good lord made us all |
