Lyrics
Young love moves in together,
He's a little bit wild,
A few months later...
Got to make a decision...
They have to come by a plan
He's not really a man.
Is that the way that...
People should live,
In a hurry to grow up...
Both parents out working,
Rita's bored staying home
She calls up some school friends
In streets they nightly roam.
Demon people find her
And work their deal
Smooth speech and heroin,
Soon their souls they steal.
Is that the way that...
People should live,
In a hurry to grow up...
All take and no give.
A banker takes his money
And locks it away...
To the beggars on the corner
He has nothing to say.
Is that the way that...
People should live,
Always In a hurry ...
No time to ever give.
No identify for you,
Creator has a plan...
To make you a hero, To make you all that he can.
No gang will sustain you,
Like the army He leads...
In the Life of the Spirit,
You don't have many needs.
Isn't that the way
That people can live
Helping each other
and Living to give.
Isn't that the way
That people can live
Helping each other
and Living to give.
