The Sound

The world is a wonderful place

  But sometimes it will slap you in the face

Then you will fall down on the ground

  And there's no one to help you around

And you lay there on the ground

  And you want to hear the sound

But there's no one around

  To help you get up off the ground

You will wonder if you will ever be found

  Or are you just gonna be kicked around?

As you lay there on the ground

  All you want is to hear the sound

This is not right

  I'm gonna fight

I can't be slapped to the ground

  And just lay around

I need to hear the sound

  I'll get up off this ol' ground

The world can't just slap me down

  And expect me to lay on the ground

All I need to hear is the sound

  Once I hear that sound I will jump up off the ground

Wait, I think I hear something abound

  I think I can hear the sound

It's coming from the window up above

  I'm standing up, I'm running around

Damn, it's great to hear that Dylan sound

NOTE:  Some would say I should have used God's sound

\             Coming from the window up above.

              But Bob Dylan is God.

                               (JOKE)
