lyrics

it on the TV, I hear it on the street

So much hate and fear, so much misery

It’s getting to the point where, I don’t watch the news

Same old story, same old blues

So I been listening to the radio,

Tuning in to all of them country shows

But I keep on hearing one thing and I’m getting tired of

Too many love songs and not enough love



CH: It’s boy meets girl on a sun-kissed beach

Sugar babes all honey sweet

Making love to a beautiful woman down by the creek

There’s good, good loving and love gone wrong

And everybody beautiful is getting it on

And if a heart is breaking the pain’s still bittersweet

Nashville must be better than heaven above

Cos everybody’s singing ‘bout love



The poor get sick, that’s tough luck

Nobody got money to buy that brand new truck

The mine and the sawmill, the plant closed down

At least crank is made in the USA, it’s the only game in town

Who’s making a noise for the working man?

A grudge and a guitar goes hand in hand

Yet all I ever hear today in all this fire and blood

Is too many love songs and not enough love



This old world’s spinning out of control

Gods all fighting for humanity’s soul

Mr King had a dream but we ain’t got there yet

People running from home trying to find peace

Somebody’s child washes up on a beach

But here comes another love song to help us forget
