Hugh James - The Greater Good

Been a lotta talk about the Greater Good
And the future of mankind
Everybody gotta do
everything they should
Even if ya gotta do it blind

We're all runnin in the human race
Most folks never ever get
To set the pace

I wanna work, I wanna play
Wanna be with my family
on Thanksgivin Day
I wanna worship in my own chosen way
Who's the greater good to say
Who' life is it anyway ?

Been a lotta talk about humanity
Been a lotta talk about right
A lot about wrong
I'm just lookin for a little bit a hope
For you and me
And I'm hopin
We can find it before too long

So hung up on ideology
What about that old idea about liberty ?

I wanna work, I wanna play
Wanna be with my family
on Christmas Day
I wanna worship in my own chosen way
Who's the Greater good to say?
Who's life is it anyway?

The World keeps on turnin
Just what are we learnin from this?
About all the life that's missed

I wanna work, I wanna play
Wanna be with my family
on any given day
I wanna live, like it's my dyin day
Who's the greater good to say?
Who's the greater good to say?
Who's life is it anyway?
