Folks & People

Folks & People - Steinar Raknes

Some folks are glad
And others are sad
Some people listen and others they talk
Some take a walk
Some people shine like the sun
And others they cry
There are people that work without doing a thing
And others that sing

Some folks say why
And others are shy
Some people move and others stand still
Some take the bill
Some folks they climb the mountain high
And some people fly
Some people whisper and some people shout
Some take a stout

Some folks are lost
And others are found
Some folks agree, and others are free
And can never be bound
Some folks are fun and others are stunned
Some folks are true
Some people can and some people will and some people do

Some folks are nice
And others are wise
Some people take and others they give
Some people live
Some folks are fast and others are slow
Some people know
There ain't no kindness in being too kind
Or swingin ́ too low

Some people grieve
And others they leave
Some people stay and others they go And some folks believe
Some folks are weak and others are strong
Some don't belong
Some try leaving a trace in a needless phrase of a song

Some folks they win
Others they loose
Some people fight everyday of their life
And still got the blues
Some people lie and others they
try
Some people dream
Some got eyes full of tears flowing in a continuous stream
