No Strife
Show respect in all you do
Believe in your faith
It will shine right through
If you work with a lathe
You need to respect
The tool that you use
And then you can reflect
To teach not to abuse
Anything in your life
Your sister, your brother
Your husband or wife
Be truthful to all
No matter how big
Even the small
And the one in the rig
The lord is my Sheppard
I am part or his herd
As fast as a leopard
So fast its absurd
Care for your friends
Though you may have some fights
Then make your amends
Through fire lit nights
I have seen many things
Had stories to tell
Met a gypsy that sings
Who did not want to yell
As it causes some pain
For the people who hear
The words of disdain
From the yeller so near
Take care my friends
And have a good life
Remember let loose
Let go of the strife
