Glad To Say

The good guys always win

And we're all forgiven of our sins

And the whole world smiles when a child is born

And everyone's color blind

And my God and your God are one of kind

Who wants a holy war, anyway?

There's just a few things I'd be glad to say

There's no homeless on our streets

There's no crooked politicians takin' money from me

And the banks look out for the little man

We're all of the ones that care

The teachers and the nurses, we've made 'em millionares

And the lawyers all work pro bono

There's just a few things I'd be glad to say

And time will find the reasons

The where's, the why's, and all that lead us

Seeking shelter, seeking truth

I find it's harder with age

All the childhood things that we threw away

They were just pieces of our innocence

[Pedal steel guitar bridge]

I find it's harder with age

All the childhood things that we threw away

They were just pieces of our innocence

I don't miss those cigarettes

And I never drink to try to forget

And this old world is still a damn fine place

There's just a few things I'd be glad to say

And time will find the reasons

The where's, the why's, and all that lead us

Seeking shelter, seeking truth

I find it's harder with age

All the childhood things that we threw away

They were just pieces of our innocence

The good guys always win

And we're all forgiven of our sins

And the whole world smiles when a child is born
