Lyrics A Good Man - June Carter Cash

Your brown eyes weigh heavy from the burdens of the world
Like what you gonna do about the young boys and the girls?
People are blind and they don't understand
But I think you can help them, you're a good man

Jesus hear the moan and the cry and the prayer of a good man
Jesus feel the pain and the hurt and the need of a good man

You're a good man, reach for the stars
I'm praying for your wisdom like I'm praying for your war
Jesus give you consolation
Jesus give you inspiration
Jesus save this nation, maybe

You're worried about pollution, 'bout the poison in the streams
'Bout that cruel Asian war or a young man's broken dreams
Love thy neighbour as thyself, reach for Jesus' hands
You can give them courage, you're a good man

Jesus hear the moan and the cry and the prayer of a good man
Jesus feel the pain and the hurt and the need of a good man

You're a good man, reach for the stars
I'm praying for your wisdom like I'm praying for the war
Jesus give you consolation
Jesus give you inspiration
Jesus save this nation, maybe

There's a difference in the old and young, a broad and mighty gap
But I don't think you feel it and it's laying in your lap
I'll hold my baby to my breast and reach out for your hand
We all need the strength of a good man

And Jesus hear the moan and the cry and the prayer of a good man
Jesus feel the pain and the hurt and the need of a good man

You're a good man, reach for the stars
I'm praying for your wisdom like I'm praying for the war
Jesus give you consolation
Jesus give you inspiration
Jesus save this nation, maybe
