I Hope

Dixie Chicks - I Hope

Sunday morning, I heard the preacher say

Thou shall not kill

I don t wanna hear nothing else about killing

And that it s God s will

Cause our children are watching us

They put their trust in us

They re gonna be like us

So let s learn from our history

And do it differently

I hope, for more love, more joy and laughter

I hope, we ll have more than we ll ever need

I hope, we ll have more happy ever after

I hope, we can all live more fearlessly

And we can lose all the pain and misery

I hope, I hope

Oh, Rosie, her man he gets too rough

That s all she can say, is he s a good man

He don t mean no harm

He was just brought up that way

But our children are watching us

They put their trust in us

They re gonna be like us

It s okay for us to disagree

We can work it out lovingly

I hope, for more love, more joy and laughter

I hope, you ll have more than we ll ever need

I hope, you ll have more happy ever after

I hope, you can all live more fearlessly

And you can lose all the pain and misery

I hope, I hope

There must be a way to change what s going on

No I don t have all the answers

I hope, for more love, more joy and laughter

I hope, you ll have more than ever need

I hope, you ll have more happy ever after

I hope, we can all live more fearlessly

And we can lose all the pain and misery

I hope, I hope

And we can lose all the pain and misery

I hope, I hope

I hope, I hope, I hope...
