I've been from Maine to Texas

I've searched from coast to coast

For the country on the cover

Of the Saturday Evening Post

On every road I traveled

In all the places I passed through

I saw the faces of America

That Norman always knew



There's so much that we owe this man

With a pipe in his mouth and a brush in his hand

His pictures made us understand

What Norman always knew

No matter how the world may change

These words sing out like an old refrain

""Deep inside we're all the same""

Norman always knew



The young girl at the mirror

The boy with the fishing pole

The family all together

The young man leaving home

The wonder of young lovers

The old folks love still true

The special feelings that we share

Norman always knew



There's so much that we owe this man

With a pipe in his mouth and a brush in his hand

His pictures made us understand

What Norman always knew

No matter how the world may change

These words sing out like an old refrain

""Deep inside we're all the same""

Norman always knew



""Deep inside we're all the same""

Norman Rockwell knew
