The Selfishness in Man
George Jones
The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
I saw a little beam of sunlight steal across a purple sky And bend down to kiss a rosebud oh it made me wanna cry To think that I had been permitted to see a part of nature's plan Oh, there's nothing that stands out more than the selfishness in man. Little children painting pictures of the birds and apple trees Oh, why can't the grown up people have the faith of one of these And to think those tiny fingers might become a killer's hand Oh, there's nothing that stands out more than the selfishness in man. Why can't we see the folly and the uselessness of hate Love could lead to understanding maybe it's not too late Then perhaps in his great wisdom we might learn to understand Then there'd be no shame or sorrow and no selfishness in man. Why can't we see the folly and the uselessness of hate Love could lead to understanding maybe it's not too late Then perhaps in his great wisdom we might learn to understand Then there'd be no shame or sorrow and no selfishness in man
