Just a phase in life that everybody goes through
 
Papa left the house this morning
With a briefcase in his hands
Mama took the kids school
Before she went to work
My sister went to Georgia
To get away from the smog
My brother on an interview
Still trying to get a job
 
Hello oh Lord
I did everything I can do
Just a phase in life that everybody goes through
 
Hello oh Lord
I did everything I can do
Hello oh Lord
Carry Me Home
Don t be too long
 
Went you church sunday
Set up on the front row
Got and call me ask me why
What was wrong tears where
Falling running down my face
Like a little baby ball
I couldn't save the world
Friend of ours got married
Everybody had a ball
They partied till the morning
And they still wanted more
Couple look so happy, I wonder if they'll change
Couple look so happy
Wonder live without change
Things never stay the same
So let's move along
 
And Lord
I did everything that can do
 
Just friends in the light
That everybody goes through
 
And oh Lord
I did everything that can do
 
And oh Lord
Carry me home
Friend of ours got married
Everybody had a ball
They partied till the morning
And they still wanted more
Things never stay the same
So let's move along
Hello oh Lord
I did everything I can do
Just a phase in life that everybody goes through
Hello oh Lord
I did everything I can do
Hello oh Lord
Carry Me Home
Don t be too long
Carry Me Home
