A Better Place
The Hollies, 1973***
Out on the Road
My daddy was a wandering man
And my ma was good and true
I've tried to live like my pa
But ma I'm more like you
I want to teach people to love
I want to teach children to sing
I want to make this world a better place
For everyone to live in
My daddy thought that drinking wine
Was something every man should do
He wanted me to drink and fight
But ma I turned out more like you
I want to teach people to love
I want to teach children to sing
I want to make this world a better place
For everyone to live in
Oh, mama I want to be like you
Oh, mama you got to help me
We got to teach people to love
We got to teach children to sing
We got to make this world a better place
For everyone to live in
We got to teach people to love
We got to teach children to sing
We got to make this world a better place
For everyone to live in
