Kenny Chesney: Some People Change

His old man was a rebel yeller

Bad boy to the bone he'd say

"Can't trust a colored feller"

He'd judge 'em by the tone of their skin

He was raised to think to think like his dad

Narrow-minded; full of hate

On the road to nowhere fast

'Til the grace of God got in the way

Then saw the light, hit his knees, cried, and said a prayer

Rose up a brand-new man

Left the old one right there

Chorus:

Here's to the strong

Thanks to the brave

Don't give up hope

Some people change

Against all odds

Against the grade

Love finds a way

Some people change

She was born with her mother's habit

Guess you could say it's in her blood

She hates it that she's gotta have it

She fills her glass up

She'd love to kill that bottle

But all she could think about is a

Better life,a second chance,

And everyone she's lettin' down

She throws that bottle down!

Chorus:

Here's to the strong

Thanks to the brave

Don't give up hope

Some people change

Against all odds

Against the grade

Love finds a way

Some people change

Thank God for those who make it!

Let them be the light!

(Some people change)

Chorus:

Here's to the strong

Thanks to the brave

Don't give up hope

Some people change

Against all odds

Against the grade

Love finds a way

Some people change
