Some people walk the straight and narrow - some walk the rocky road Some get the silver spoon and some get the heavy load There's a man in a paper box he smiles whenever we walk by We just walk a little faster and say "There but for the grace of God go I" But a little love - just a little love - a little love can change it all I've been up and down this highway and I ain't seen a road sign yet It's a cold hard world baby you gotta hang on to what you get I don't believe in miracles but that don't mean they don't come true Well I may not get to heaven but I get a little closer when I'm with you But a little love - just a little love - a little love can change it all Well I get a little tired walkin' down the street People on my side - everyone I meet But they don't know what's on my mind And they don't know that they might find A little love - just a little love - a little love can change it all Right when you think you don't need love is when you need it most Even when you got the father the son and the holy ghost Well there's more to truth baby than what we know is true Ya we wander round in the darkness But every now and then a little love shines thru And a little love - just a little love - a little love can change it all
