《The Selfishness In Man》歌词

[00:00:00] The Selfishness In Man - George Jones (乔治·琼斯)

[00:00:12] I saw a little beam of sunlight steal across a purple sky

[00:00:25] And bend down to kiss a rosebud oh it made me wanna cry

[00:00:36] To think that I had been permitted to see a part of nature's plan

[00:00:47] Oh there's nothing that stands out more than the selfishness in man

[00:01:00] Little children painting pictures of the birds and apple trees

[00:01:11] Oh why can't the grown up people have the faith of one of these

[00:01:24] And to think those tiny fingers might become a killer's hand

[00:01:35] Oh there's nothing that stands out more than the selfishness in man

[00:01:48] Why can't we see the folly and the uselessness of hate

[00:01:59] Love could lead to understanding maybe it's not loo late

[00:02:11] Then perhaps in his great wisdom we might learn to understand

[00:02:22] Then there'd be no shame or sorrow and no selfishness in man
