Lyrics



Our lives have melodies
They’re not on any chart
Sung through our parched lips
But comin’ from our heart

Harmony’s our common roots
That many just condemn
Our chorus is the troubled times
Of every woman and man

Some songs touch us close
In a way I can’t explain
Make us want to stomp our feet
Return to where we came

(Chorus)
Life is a long song
We’re all players in the band
Sung by folks like you and me
All o’r this great land

I hope you appreciate
What most don’t understand
Life is a long song
And we’re all players in the band

Songs are life-stories
Life-stories are our songs
And our lives are better
When we all sing along

I’m up here on this small stage
But there’s lots of room
Hope you’ll sing along
Sing your life-tune

Life is a long song
That’s playin’ in our mind
Life has a rhythm
Life has a rhyme

(Chorus)
Life is a long song
We’re all players in the band
Sung by folks like you and me
All o’r this great land

I hope you appreciate
What most don’t understand
Life is a long song
And we’re all players in the band

So when the man tells you
You got nothin’ to give
Sing him out your own life-song
Show him how you live

Show ‘em the rhythm
Of a good song at its core
Belt out your own sweet tune
Make your spirit soar

Start dancin’ to your own beat
Go ahead and make your day
They think the dancer crazy
‘Till they hear your music play

(Chorus)
Life is a long song
We’re all players in the band
Sung by folks like you and me
All o’r this great land

I hope you appreciate
What most don’t understand
Life is a long song
And we’re all players in the band

Ya, I hope you appreciate
What most don’t understand
Life is a long song
And we’re all players in the band
