saint's & sinners
all beginners
losers & winners

drunks & dreamers
schemmer & well meaner's
lost in rhyme
just passin' thru time

saved or lost
we all pay the cost

and in the end
it's GOD who'll send
a way ta' mend
the answer's
to HIM we're just dancers
prancers'
dreamers
or schemmer
full steamers
without the hot water
without the steam
He just looks at us
and smiles
thinks ta' himself
'YEAH.. they oughta'
find the Water
before they turn up the heat.
but ain't it neat, they keep tryin

damncers & prancers
dreamers & schemers
christian & jews,
yeah and the other ones too
tryin' ta do
what comes so eazy
ta's do's

just be you's
best ya'can do's
is fine with me
"just don't
lie to yourself,
or lie to me.

you are who you be.
you see what ya' see.
&ME I see you
hell
pardner
best even GOd can do

see you for who you are
who you be
can't ya' see

I BE WHO I AM
and so are you
so why try ta' change it
man...don't try to rearrange it
it is how it is
'cause that's the way it be
can't ya see?

or are you blind
oh, Hell\nevermind

(STEVE says with s0o much srcasm & whit...must be GOD speakin' to me)////smi;le)

You're thinking deep tonight huh, Steve? Doing a little soul searching, thinking about things? That's always good. I like this stanza:

"just be you's
best ya'can do's
is fine with me
"just don't
lie to yourself,
or lie to me."

Nice poem, lots of good thoughts here!
