lyrics

Momma taught me the definition
Of unconditional love
And lately I've been thinkin'
That's somethin' we could use more of
How 'bout you?
How 'bout you?

My dad taught me a reason
To give it all and get the damn thing done
And I'm thinkin' if work together boys
We can keep it all from comin' undone
How 'bout you?
How 'bout you?

I'm thinkin' if we could just sit down
And listen with an open mind
Some kind of understanding
Can't be too far behind

Jesus taught me a lesson
Treat my neighbor as I would myself
I'd be a coward if I saw my neighbor struck down
And never did a thing to help
How 'bout you?
How 'bout you?

Truth is the best of all teachers
I'd be a liar if I was to say
I couldn't do more just to listen
To what they really have to say
How 'bout you?
How 'bout you?

I'm thinkin' if we could just sit down
And listen with an open mind
Some kind of understanding
Can't be too far behind

I'm thinkin' if we could just sit down
And listen with an open mind
Some kind of understanding
Can't be too far behind
Some kind of understanding
Can't be too far behind
