1. Don't worry about your life
'Cause if you hold it too close, you'll lose it
Don't worry about your life
So won't you let go, before it's gone

R: On the corner of Fifth and Broadway
I was walking to the grocery store on Third
I saw a man upon a box, and he seemed a little unorthodox
And as I walked on by he said

2. Don't worry about your life
'Cause if you hold it too close, you'll lose it
Don't worry about your life
So won't you let go, before it's gone

3. A little farther on I saw a beggar on the street
He asked for change, then gives me his life story
He said he was a millionaire, but he made some bad decisions there
And now, a dollar fifty could feed him for a week, and he said

C: Then I see the birds, I watch them fly
They've got everything they need, they show me why
I can be free, knowing You will care for me

Well finally at the grocery store
My mind is filled with many thoughts
As I bumped into a girl I knew from high school
She said "What's different about you, girl"
And I smiled and said, "This is what I know is true, and I'll pass it right along to"
