Run The Human Race
by 
Hans Theessink 
recording of 1997 
from 
Journey On (Minor 84172) 
We gotta run the human race 
Everybody must take part 
Win some or lose some 
And always listen to your heart 
There's just one earth, just one sky 
We all gotta live here, 'til the day we die 
'Til the final curtain call, when the lights go down 
We all have a ride on the merry-go-round 
We gotta run the human race 
Everybody must take part 
Win some or lose some 
And always listen to your heart 
Jehova, Buddha, Allah, Manitou 
No matter who you are and who you're praying to 
Don't count the difference, count what binds 
You're a link in the chain and a number in line 
We gotta run the human race 
Everybody must take part 
Win some or lose some 
And always listen to your heart 
Red 'n' yellow, black 'n' white 
We gotta work it out, we gotta put things right 
Live in happiness, live in peace 
Love 'n' understanding, sweet harmony 
Money makes the world go round, so the proverb says 
And it's nice to have some money, living day by day 
But when you die you can't take it up to heaven above 
And John Lennon told us "Money can't buy you love" 
We gotta run the human race 
Everybody must take part 
Win some or lose some 
And always listen to your heart
