I grew up impressed by the people i knew

In the buckle of the bible belt

Hopped in the van with the band

Now i've been just about everywhere else

Met a soldier from seattle and a lawyer from the east

A texas oil baron and a roman catholic priest





Every day i choose

To walk in their shoes

'cause pretty are the feet of those

Who bring the good news





Good people

Good, good people

Everywhere, everywhere it's god's people





Been on the road been far from home

But i found me a friend or two

Time has taught me well and i can tell you

The good things people do

They really care and i've been there

Seen it with my eyes

You can tell that they're god's people

By the goodness in their lives
