Ain't no miracle bein' born
People doin' it every day
It ain't no miracle growin' up
People just grow that way
So it goes
People just grow that way
Like it goes
Like the river flows
And time just rolls right on
And maybe what's good
Gets a little bit better
And maybe what's bad
Gets a-goin'
And bless the child
Of the workin' man
She knows too soon
Who she is
And bless the hands
Of the workin' man
He knows his soul
Is his
So it goes
Like it goes
Like the river flows
And the time just rolls
Right on
And maybe what's good
Gets a little bit better
And maybe what's bad
Gets gone
So it goes
Like it goes
Like the river flows
Like the river flows
And the time just rolls
Right on
And maybe what's good
Gets a little bit better
And maybe what's bad
Gets a little bit better
It's gone
