Lyrics
A Man Like This
Written by Lee/Matthiesen 06/20/2011 copyright 2011
(verse 1)
I walked with Lincoln down a dirt and dusty road
Searching for answers that he already knows
For him to keep the union he loved together
He must free all men forever
(pre chorus)
We could use a man like this today
Or watch his work slip away
(chorus)
A man like this, a man like this
We could use a man like this today
Someone who will stop the pain we're in
Bring us to our senses once again
We could use a man like this today
(verse 2)
I heard Lennon, play his songs still every day
We all heard him singing, what did we here him say
When he told us 'love is all you need' my friend
It's not that hard to still believe
(repeat chorus)
(verse 3)
I heard about Jesus, how he'd share his wine
Break bread, tell stories on how to live our lives
He was the answer, gave the reasons why
Not to judge each other, just enjoy the ride
( repeat chorus)
We could use a man like this today
