I want all the evidence of everything that's beautiful in this whole world.
Like an old man dancing out in the yard to the laughter of a little girl.

Why can't we just love life, live like we got a little bit of gratitude
'Stead of a whole lot of attitude?
This is us, in God we trust, and then we lust all of our neighbors
Paper the house the gold, I gotta fashion statement to make
"Just wear clothes". We judge too much, hold a grudge too much.
I'm like a lot of us, I probably couldn't move without the crutch I lean on.
Ain't gonna lie, seen the fiend on the street.
But for the grace of God there go I.
The kids need opportunity, stop the lunacy,
Chop off the excess because greed is evil.
We gotta treat people equal, people. Life is a blessing without no sequal.
I'm talkin' to the hooker on the street and the preacher beneath the steeple, people.

I want all the evidence of everything that's beautiful in this whole world.
Like an old man dancing out in the yard to the laughter of a little girl.
On a windy gray October day.

A country boy in this city noise, the frowning faces, the dreamers, schemers,
The money chasers, the jags, the beamers that I don't need.
Deceipt surrounds me. Bitter critters give me the jitters.
It is amazing these things we take for granted.
The king is the man who makes more money. Sunny days go unnoticed.
Bloat us divide us I find it's so this-
Heartening the divine art and things
In nature a world full of beautiful creatures
That over wager and plagiarize
Under paid teachers anger lies
Everybody looking for the way to make another person
Look inside the mind and feel what they feel
We fallen in love with things that ain't real.

I want all the evidence of everything that's beautiful in this whole world.
Like an old man dancing out in the yard to the laughter of a little girl.
On a windy gray October day, with the simplicity of a smiling face.

I want all the evidence of everything that's beautiful in this whole world.
