n`t no miracle being born
People doin` it everyday
It ain`t no miracle growing up ah
People just grow that way
So it goes like it goes
Like the river flows
And time it rolls right on
And maybe what`s good gets a little bit better
And maybe what`s bad gets gone
Ah bless the child of a working man
She knows too soon who she is
And bless the hands of a working man
Oh he knows his soul is his
So it goes like it goes
Like the river flows
And time it rolls right on
And maybe what`s good gets a little bit better
And maybe what`s bad gets gone
So it goes like it goes
Like the river flows
And time keeps rolling right on oh
And maybe what`s good gets a little bit better
And maybe what`s bad gets gone
