I'm really not a poet
But I do love to write
My words are pretty simple
And that exemplifies my life
I've never chased a dollar
But hard work's a faithful friend
Let no one think "he's lazy"
When the light of day's at end
Everything I've ever wanted
Live between these walls
And if I slip a little bit
I've a few good friends to call
Darkness had nothing for me
Just left me lonely, cold, and black
I learned to count my blessings
Not curse the things I lack
I believe in Christian values
But I don't always do what's right
I just do my best, repent the rest
And keep walking in the light
