Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Mr. Maker, he's got it made
A beautiful wife and a baby on the way
And his bill are already paid
No need to scrimp, no need to save
But all around him the world grows hard
He thinks to himself he must've played a lucky card
If he was alone he'd give it all away
To people and things that he wanted to save
[Verse 2]
But, oh no
It's alright
Mr. Maker, he'll be fine
It's alright
It's okay
Because of the love he gave away
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
[Verse 3]
Doesn't stop to think it's because of he
Always doing right, he stays healthy
The girls in the alleys won't get hold of him
He's got no time for that kind of sin and he
He's not a member of the Catholic Church
The pastor of his town got sent down for dirt
He sees the boys from Sunday school
It's hard to believe what he read in the morning news
[Verse 4]
But, oh no
It's alright
Mr. Maker, he'll be fine
It's alright
It's okay
Because of the love he gave away
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
[Verse 5]
Heartbeat
Stay heavy
Love us all please
Stay on your feet
For me
For me
Stay on your feet for me
For me
Stay on your feet for me
[Verse 6]
But, oh no
It's alright
Mr. Maker, he'll be fine
It's alright
It's okay
Because of the love he gave away
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
