From What We Give

Johnny baker works down at the mill

Makes enough to make ends meet

And pay his bills

Even though he comes from the wrong side of the tracks

He's the first on there to lend a hand

Or give the shirt right off his back





(chorus)

From what we give we make a living

Those dollars, diamonds and gold

But that old cliche' is a given

You reap what you sow

When you reach out your hand and heart

Then your soul is satisfied

From what we give we make a living

From what we give

We make a life





Mr. millers got a mansion on the hill

He spent his whole life

Chasing that almighty dollar bill

But all his so-called riches

Somethings missing in his soul

It takes more than having everything

To make a man feel whole





(repeat chorus)





(tag)

When you reach out your hand and your heart

Then your soul is satisfied

From what we give we make a living

From what we give

We make a life

From what we give we make a living

From what we give

We make a life
