Favor

God can be rough on the righteous

Makes them lean hard on their strength

Oh, but still they keep on fighting

To keep it tied together when the ends don't meet

No stranger to the struggle, or rising up from rubble

They do the only thing that they know how to do

Tough times don't last, tough people do

'Cause there's hope in them there hills

There's heart in them there hollers

Where the whole world don't revolve around the almighty dollar

Oh, there's taking and there's giving

There's life and then there's living

And the only thing we're given is today

So drink it up and love your neighbor

Try and do someone a favor

It takes a while, but not forever

Getting back up on your feet

Nothing turns a heart to leather

Or stirs the bitter way down deep

Like the feeling of forgotten

And the hard times just ain't stopping

And the world don't seem to care like it used to

Tough times don't last, tough people do

Cause there's hope in them there hills

There's heart in them there hollers

Where the whole world don't revolve around the almighty dollar

Oh, there's taking and there's giving

There's life and then there's living

And the only thing we're given is today

So drink it up and love your neighbor

Try and do someone a favor

Don't know how much you can take until you take it

Or how much you can shake off till you shake it

'Cause there's hope in them there hills

There's heart in them there hollers

Where the whole world don't revolve around the almighty dollar

Oh, there's taking and there's giving

There's life and then there's living

And the only thing we're given is today

So drink it up and love your neighbor

Try and do someone a favor

So drink it up and love your neighbor

Try and do someone a favor
