Hey babe, do you remember back in 1969?
We gathered 'round the room, you sang yours and I sang mine
We took turns with the guitar in the front and center seat
Shell and Kris and Dylan and a couple off the street
Joni Mitchell cried on "Both Sides Now"
We sang songs that made a difference
And we can again somehow
Everybody knew that this was quite a special night
Graham Nash was nervous in the hot seat, in the light
Joe South was total magic, we all walked in his shoes
Orbison and Rabbitt cried and he blocked the country blues
Newberry's "San Francisco Mabel Joy"
We sang songs that made a difference
June was pregnant with my boy
I could make a living driving nails or driving trucks
Sleep beneath the bridge or in the streets, down on my luck
I'd stand the cold and hunger if they'd let me hear the songs
Everybody write one that us bums can sing along
Keep it from the heart and down to earth
Sing the songs that make a difference
Give us all our money's worth
Hey, keep it from the heart and down to earth
Sing the songs that make a difference
Give us all our money's worth
