I don't know about you, but I like to tell the truth
But the truth seems to change every Tuesday
When I watch the news, man, it just gives me the blues
No one listens, just on a mission to hear their own voice

It's a wild world we're all trying to find our place in it
It's a wild world and no one seems to understand it
But there ain't no way I'm gonna quit it
Love is all we got to give away

Some folks ain't got a dollar to their name
Others got their own jet planes
We all got the same blood running through our veins
Whether or not you pray, black or white, straight or gay
You still deserve the love of your neighbor

It's a wild world we're all trying to find our place in it
It's a wild world and no one seems to understand it
But there ain't no way I'm gonna quit it
Love is all we got to give away

Try a little tenderness, maybe some benefit of the doubt
Another person's point of view, try to listen not to shout
Hold your opinions loosely maybe you're not always right
Show a little mercy, and hold on to love real tight

It's a wild world we're all trying to find our place in it
It's a wild world and no one seems to understand it
But there ain't no way I'm gonna quit it
Love is all we got to give away
Love is all we got to give away
Love is all we got to give away
