A Better Way

Lyrics

(2... 3... 4... Uh) [Verse] If a rich man came past Through the golden gates And though it takes a smile, baby To wash away the hate What I don't understand now Is when they say you smile too late If you give everything you got away, baby You have a brighter day Aw, it sounds kinda crazy to me y'all If I might say, uh (Oh, yeah, yeah) It just doesn't feel right babe A [?] that's not my way It might've been kinda cool Before the people got so mean Cause I've got me little [?] baby Not gasoline That's why [Chorus] There's got to be a better way (Hey, there's got to be...) There's got to be a better way (Better way, there's got to be a—) There's got to be a better way (hey, there's got to be—) There's got to be a better way (A-a-a-a better way) [Verse] You know I've got a fancy car Sometimes plenty money's spent on you But I still look after my mom and papa There's some things I just love to do When you look at me What ya see is what I am Don't let it scare you, honey Cause I am just an ordinary man [?] too much Means I don't qualify (yeah x20) [?] baby I think it's time for me to stand up and testify And people try and tell me They can show me a better way And if you look around now [?It'll soon be judgement day] Oh, that's why [Chorus] There's got to be a better way (Ah, ah, ah, I know...) There's got to be a better way (Hey, hey, ah, ah, I know...) There's got to be a better way (got to be, got to be a, a—) There's got to be a better way (Ah, ah, hey hey hey-ey) You know talking isn't good enough So I [?] give it up [Chorus] Got to be a better way {Mm} Got to be a better way {Oh lord, hey-ey, hey-ey} Got to be a better way {Listen to my guitar, ah} Got to be a better way {Everybody sing it now: Higher, higher Higher, higher Ooo Higher, higher Higher, higher Ooo}
