"Good People (Thank Me)" lyrics

"Good People (Thank Me)"

There was a flag
There was a rally
There was a lady
There was a guy
They picked a team
And started yelling
It made 'em both feel
Sad inside

So later on
When it was over
They found each other
Apologized
Then they went out
And got some supper
And fell in love
To their surprise

So thank God
For good people
Thank people
For being kind
I thank you
For doing your thing
And thank me
For doing mine

I know a guy
He's always worried
He's in no hurry
To try and see
How he might have
A couple issues
Well, I'll be honest
That guy is me

I held a grudge
Against the neighbor
I did not like her
For some time
Till she said, "Hey
Do you like apples?"
I said, "I do"
And we get on fine

So thank God
For good people
Thank people
For being kind
I thank you
For doing your thing
And thank me
For doing mine

So here we are
All together
But in the end
We'll be alone
So let's agree
It would be better
If we could all just get along

And thank God
For good people
Thank people
For being kind
I thank you
For doing your thing
And thank me
For doing mine

I said, "Thank God
For good people
Thank people
For being kind"
I thank you
For doing your thing
And thank me
For doing mine

One more time
Oh, thank God
For good people
Thank people
For being kind
I thank you
For doing your thing
And thank me
For doing mine
