(with Carole King)




College Kids turning twenty-one

And 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 shigles and doors

And the tide 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

I thank God their there

They're the one's who care

Everyday People



Doctor said "Good News we caught it soon enough, we can clear this up"

But she's 30 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



[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 tears as a family moves in



[Chorus]
