There are those who wake up every morning
Pull the curtains back smilin at the sun
They hold their head high when the rain is pouring

Lay down in peace when the day is done
Oh, then there's the rest of us


The ones out here blowin in the wind
Tryin to find what we shoulda been
Makin our choices hopin were right

Livin on the prayers we say at night
Tryin to out run the devil and the pain
Learnin to live with what we can't change

God bless the rest of us

There are those who find love the first time

And do what it takes to make it last
They don't have to lose it to finally realize
The sweet sweet gift that they had

Oh, then there's the rest of us

The ones out here blowin in the wind


Tryin to find what we shoulda been
Makin our choices hopin were right

Livin on the prayers we say at night
Tryin to out run the devil and the pain
Learnin to live with what we can't change

God bless the rest of us

Sometimes, Lord, it's all I can do to breathe

But I'll be all right with my brothers and my sisters
Around me


The ones out here blowin in the wind
Tryin to find what we shoulda been
Makin our choices hopin were right

Livin on the prayers we say at night
Tryin to out run the devil and the pain
Learnin to live with what we can't change

God bless the rest of us, God bless the rest of us
God bless the rest of us
