"People Who Care" lyrics

"People Who Care"

Tommy helps her with the groceries
And on the weekend cuts the grass
'Cause miss Mary's on her own
Ever since her husband passed
She likes the help but mostly
She just likes having him around

At the food bank in the city
That's where Amy volunteers
She don't really talk about it
But she's helping out for years
Her momma always told her
To lend a hand to folks when they are down

Just look around, you'll find 'em everywhere

People who care, people who do
People who'd go the extra mile
To see us through
When they don't have to
They don't just talk, they walk the walk
See something wrong and they step up
'Cause it's the right thing
Yeah, it's the right thing
Like an answer to a prayer
Thank God we got 'em there
People who care

After every storm
You can count on Jesse showing up
With a chainsaw
And all the friends who'll fit into his truck
They won't be stopping, won't be slowing down
Not until the lights are all back on

Just look around, you'll find 'em everywhere

People who care, people who do
People who'd go the extra mile
To see us through
When they don't have to
They don't just talk, they walk the walk
See something wrong and they step up
'Cause it's the right thing
Yeah, it's the right thing
Like an answer to a prayer
Thank God we got 'em there
People who care

They don't do it for the money
They don't do it for the praise
They don't do it for the glory
Or so people know their names
They don't need another reason
Just that someone needs 'em somewhere

Just look around, you'll fine 'em everywhere

People who care
People who care
