Pray if you pray
Or maybe meditate
On the state of a nation starting over
Over the hill
Or the hump, if you will
Or maybe we’re just climbing
Up up up
Our class is half full
And our hearts are broken
Yet hope is pumping out
So, we’re not leaving town
We’re not leaving town
So what can we do?
Are you feeling helpless too?
But just help those who
Might need more than you and I do?
Lift up a child
Pick up the down and out
Shoot a sunny ray in the way
Of some nasty cloud
Our class is half full
And our hearts are broken
Yet hope is pumping out
So, we’re not leaving town
We’re not leaving town
So, pray if you pray
Or maybe meditate
On the state of a nation starting over
Or maybe meditate
On the state of a nation starting over

Or maybe we’re just climbing
Up up up

Might need more than you and I do?
Lift up a child
Pick up the down and out

Our class is half full
And our hearts are broken
Yet hope is pumping out
So, we’re not leaving town
We’re not leaving town
So, pray if you pray

On the state of a nation starting over
