POOR MAN'S GRAY
(Good)
Pat Steward: Drums
Rich Priske: Bass
Matthew Good: Guitars/Vocals
From Chicago to Miami
Shout New York, shout LA
Today we take the White House
And paint it poor man’s gray
From London to Damascus
Cry Freetown in Marseilles
Today we take the blue sky
And paint it poor man’s gray
My mama she done told me
There’s heart and then there’s hate
If one of them is inside of you
The other one it ain’t
From the alleys on the East side
Where the train it throws the weight
Brother take that cheeky smile
And paint it poor man’s gray
From Berlin to Havana
From Beijing to Bombay
Today we take the blue sky
And paint it poor man’s gray

I will not give up. My face is set,my gait is fast,my goal is heaven,my road is narrow,my way is rough,my companions are few,my guide is reliable,my mission is clear. I cannot be bought,compromised,detoured,lured away,turned back,diluted or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice,hesitate in the presence of adversity,negotiate at the table of the enemy,ponder at the pool of popularity,or meander in the maze of mediocrity. I will not give up,shut up or slow down....Blessed Be!
