It's Getting Late by Dave Deal Some men bring us into this life Some men teach in our schools Some men plan our society Some enforce the rules Some men preach of a better life Just send a buck or two Some raise cattle and some farm the land Let�s not forget to thank them for our food Some men wear a white collar Most of us wear blue Some men work in the factories Some in the mines far, far below Some men slave all day in the hot sun For your family, you do what you can Some men work eight hours everyday And at night, entertain in a band Some men ruin our water Others pollute the air Some men try to clean it all up Some men don�t seem to care Some men are elected on promises They�ll straighten up this place Then put all of our problems in a pile And they throw them back in our face We�re all in this together Everybody�s searching; we all make mistakes Our lives won�t last forever And they say, we control our fate We most fulfill our dreams before it�s too late And it�s getting late Author: Dave Deal Email: [email protected]
