When you're down and out and all alone And a job you cannot find
You're in these welfare lines more than home
It seems that no one shares
And it's worse that nobody cares
But most of all you feel so alone
But glad me the serenity
To excel the things I cannot change
But change the things I can
And the wisdom to know the difference
I'll turn my cheek the other way
To love my friends when they treat me wrong
They need somebody
They need somebody
They need somebody
Who cares
To make it through these hills and valleys strong
Dear Lord, I don't want to be a millionaire
I'll work and earn my way
And maybe walk in greener pastures
Now and then
Now and then
And Lord, I ain't got no complaints
What I prayed for most came true
What my future holds in store
Depends on you
God, glad me the serenity
To excel the things I cannot change
But change the things I can
And the wisdom to know the difference
I'll turn my cheek the other way
To love my friends when they treat me wrong
They need somebody who cares
To love my friends when they treat me wrong
They need somebody who cares
To love my friends when they treat me wrong
