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' we're right Livin' on the prayers we say at night Tryin' to outrun 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' we're right Livin' on the prayers we say at night Tryin' to outrun the devil and the pain Learnin' to live with what we can't change God bless the rest of us Sometimes, oh, it's all I can do to breathe But I'll be alright 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' we're right Livin' on the prayers we say at night Tryin' to outrun 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, oh
