Real people of the world
Hear me
Real people of the world
Come near me
The time has come for us
We must act as one now
The time has come for us
To do what must be done now
United we will stand
Together hand in hand
ย
Real people of the world
It's late now
Real people of the world
Don't wait now
Those of you who care
Take the time to show it
People everywhere
Let each other know it
Together we must try
Together you and I
I'm talking about the people in this
World who care and who give a damn
People who care about the country they're living in
I'm talking about the guy who's out
There on the road hustling to make a buck
And he's alone tonight in some hotel
Room missing his family something bad
I'm talking about that little woman who's standing on
An orange crate in her backyard hanging out her wash
And at the same time she's watching her kids and she's
Wondering what she can do to make them a little happier
I'm talking about people who care about the guy who's
Stuck in a foxhole somewhere fighting for his life
While his wife and kids are back home praying for him
ย
I'm talking about a man I read about from Texas named H. Ross Perot
He's just put his money where his mouth is
Spent over three million dollars to get supplies and medicine to
Our boys locked up in prison camps thousands of miles from here
I'm talking about a man like Charlie T
Now that name may not mean anything to
You but it does to many that he's helped
There's a lot of guys in this world like Charlie who made it
In life and now they spend each day helping those who need it
Yes, I'm talking about people
No matter how little or how much they've got
They always try to give a little bit
People who are trying to make this world a better place to live in
Real people of the world
Hear me
Real people of the world
Come near me
