The World Needs People
People who cannot be bought People who have been properly taught That their word is their bond And who do not wave like a wand
People who place character ahead of wealth People who put will and opinion before health Who do not make work a daily idol Nor spend the day being totally idle
People who would not get lost in a crowd People who speak up against wrong very loud Who are just as honest as the day is long And take the time to hear another man’s song
People who do not do just what others do People who to their friends are true Who do not believe one needs to be shrewd Or cunning or hard headed or even lewd
To be successful in business or even life One needs to be true to husband or wife And has the will to say no and really mean Not yes or maybe or something between.
