I heard this tune for the first time yesterday as I was riding home. Between this, the new Buick commercial and the latest OECD ranking showing how America stacks up rather poorly regarding happiness and work-life balance, I think Vince Gill's tune is worth a ponder.
Have a great weekend.
"What You Give Away" -- Vince Gill
You read the business page See how you did today You live up on the hill You've got a view that kills Never wonder why
After you've counted everything you saved Do you ever hit your knees and pray? You know there's gonna be a judgment day So what will you say?
[Chorus:] No matter what you make All that you can take Is what you give away What you give away
There's people on the street Ai't got enough to eat You just shake your head The measure of a man is one who lends a hand That's what my father said
After you've counted everything you saved Do you ever hit your knees and pray? You know there's gonna be a judgment day So what will you say?
[Chorus]
It's what you give away
After you've counted everything you saved Do you ever hit your knees and pray? You know there's gonna be a judgment day So what will you say?
No matter what you make All that you can take Is what you give away
You know it's not too late It's all for Heaven's sake What you give away
