We’ll Survive

Lyrics

Sister sings a lonely tune Mother sends her luck to heaven We miss father's gentle eyes And this comes as no surprise There's a circle 'round the heart Of the humble and the able We learned everything we could Sittin' at the dinner table We'll survive Deep inside, there's a guide We will ride Down the road of life All the teachers and the preachin' Tryin' to show us how to live Every man, every woman Never learnin' how to give As the younger children try To seek wisdom from the older They need truth to save their lives Put an angel on their shoulder We'll survive Deep inside, there's a guide We will ride Down the road of life See the beautiful land From the mountains to the shores Men have died for their countries Men have cried through the wars If we can find a way To believe in each other Take good care of the earth And respect one another We'll survive Deep inside, there's a guide We will ride Down the road of life
