Do What You Can

歌詞

Tonight they're shutting down the borders And they boarded up the schools Small towns are rollin' up their sidewalks One less paycheck comin' through I know you're feelin' kinda nervous We're all a little bit confused Nothing's the same, this ain't a game We gotta make it through As we wave outside the window Older loved ones stay inside Moms and babies blowin' kisses May be saving someone's life They had to cancel graduation It ain't fair to Skype the prom Our kids sit home in isolation TV news is always on When you can't do what you do You do what you can This ain't my prayer, it's just a thought I'm wanting to send 'Round here, we bend but don't break Down here, we all understand When you can't do what you do You do what you can The chicken farm from Arkansas bought workers PPE Not before five hundred more had succumbed to this disease Honest men and honest women workin' for an honest wage I got a hundred point one fever, and we still got bills to pay When you can't do what you do You do what you can This ain't my prayer, it's just a thought I'm wanting to send 'Round here, we bend but don't break Down here, we all understand When you can't do what you do You do what you can They built a hospital on East Meadow in Central Park last night Doctors, nurses, truckers, grocery store clerks manning the front lines I saw a Red Cross on the Hudson They turned off the Broadway lights Another ambulance screams by There by the grace of God go I Although I'll keep my social distance What this world needs is a hug Until we find the vaccination There's no substitute for love So love yourself and love your family Love your neighbor and your friend Ain't it time we loved a stranger? They're just a friend you ain't met yet When you can't do what you do You do what you can This ain't my prayer, it's just a thought I'm wanting to send 'Round here, we bend but don't break Down here, we all understand When you can't do what you do You do what you can When you can't do what you do You do what you can
