Spare Change
I'm not looking for a handout
So you need not turn away
I feel these days down for the count
In need of some spare change
Nothing that's to drastic
Just a little change in tide
From the in as well as out
When it comes to change in life
Spare change in my attitude
In the way I deal with friends
Even those that I don't know
I sometimes need to make amends
Also in my daily walk
Change up my exercise
Instead of curls with a fork
Get up off of my backside
I need spare change in the way
I tend to look at life
Spend it on my kids
As well as on my wife
If there's any that's left over
I'll save it for a rainy day
And the rest above all that
I'll give that change away
Cause I don't care who you are
We could all use some spare change
To make it through the trials of life
We spend time in everyday
