A Little Good News (2001 Digital Remaster) - Anne Murray
I rolled out this morning kids had the morning
News show on
Bryant gumbel was talking about the fighting in Lebanon
Some senator was squawking about the bad economy
It's gonna get worse you see
Need a change in policy
There's a local paper rolled up in a rubber band
One more sad story's one more than I can stand
Just once how I'd like to see the headline say
Not much to print today can't find nothing bad to say
Because
Nobody robbed a liquor store on the lower part of town
Nobody od'd nobody burned a single building down
Nobody fired a shot in anger
Nobody had to die in vain
Sure could use a little good news today
I'll come home this evening
I'll bet that the news will be the same
Somebody takes a hostage somebody steals a plane
How I wanna hear the anchor man talk about a county fair
And how we cleaned up the air
How everybody learned to care
Whoa tell me
Nobody was assassinated in the whole third world today
And in the streets of ireland all the children
Had to do was play
And everybody loves everybody in the good old USA
We sure could use a little good news today
Nobody robbed a liquor store on the lower part of town
Nobody od'd nobody burned a single building down
Nobody fired a shot in anger
Nobody had to die in vain
We sure could use a little good news today
