Tonight they're shutting down the borders And they boarded up the schools Small towns are rolling up their sidewalks One last paycheck coming through I know you're feeling kind of 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 blowing 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 500 more Had succumbed to this disease Honest men and honest women Working 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 (screams by) If 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 the stranger They're just a friend you ain't met yet Oh When you can't do what you do You do what you can (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
