One Can Be A Lot
I ducked into church one Sunday, just to get out of the rain
I sat down in the very back row in time to hear the preacher say
"Before we bow our heads let me leave you with this thought
Do one good turn to someone, one can be a lot"
Just one sun lights the sky
Just one moon turns the tide
A man can change the world with just one thought
One promise made can last forever
Just one rock will bend a river
One God up in heaven's all we've got
But sometimes one can be a lot
I used to be a drinking man, but that's puttin' it polite
I drank away my heart and soul, my daughter and my wife
God knows that I've been trying to get back what I lost
I've been sober one year now, but one can be a lot
Just one sun lights the sky
Just one moon turns the tide
A man can change the world with just one thought
One promise made can last forever
Just one rock will bend a river
One God up in heaven's all we've got
But sometimes one can be a lot
Standing in this phone booth
Trying to find my nerve
I'm about to ask for what I know I don't deserve
Rehearsing every word before I let that gold coin drop
Won't you give me one more chance, one can be a lot
Just one sun lights the sky
Just one moon turns the tide
A man can change the world with just one thought
And one promise made can last forever
Just one rock can bend a river
One God up in heaven's all we've got
But sometimes one can be a lot
Oh sometimes, one can be a lot
I sat down in the very back row in time to hear the preacher say
"Before we bow our heads let me leave you with this thought
Do one good turn to someone, one can be a lot"
Just one sun lights the sky
Just one moon turns the tide
A man can change the world with just one thought
One promise made can last forever
Just one rock will bend a river
One God up in heaven's all we've got
But sometimes one can be a lot
I used to be a drinking man, but that's puttin' it polite
I drank away my heart and soul, my daughter and my wife
God knows that I've been trying to get back what I lost
I've been sober one year now, but one can be a lot
Just one sun lights the sky
Just one moon turns the tide
A man can change the world with just one thought
One promise made can last forever
Just one rock will bend a river
One God up in heaven's all we've got
But sometimes one can be a lot
Standing in this phone booth
Trying to find my nerve
I'm about to ask for what I know I don't deserve
Rehearsing every word before I let that gold coin drop
Won't you give me one more chance, one can be a lot
Just one sun lights the sky
Just one moon turns the tide
A man can change the world with just one thought
And one promise made can last forever
Just one rock can bend a river
One God up in heaven's all we've got
But sometimes one can be a lot
Oh sometimes, one can be a lot
