I usually have my Spotify playlist going on my computer at work each day. Actually it is no longer my Playlist because I usually click on my personal "discover" box and let Spotify choose my songs for the day from my past artist/genre selections. This song came on and I just had to stop and listen to the entire thing. Haven't heard this song in ages and I have always loved Don Williams' voice and the words to this song. It made me very happy. Put a smile on my face and brought me close to tears. If you don't have time to listen, I've posted the lyrics below. (But his voice is amazing!)
Don Williams...I Believe In You
I don't believe in superstars
Organic food and foreign cars
I don't believe the price of gold
The certainty of growing old
That right is right and left is wrong
That north and south can't get along
That east is east and west is west
And being first is always best.
Organic food and foreign cars
I don't believe the price of gold
The certainty of growing old
That right is right and left is wrong
That north and south can't get along
That east is east and west is west
And being first is always best.
But I believe in love, I believe in babies
I believe in mom and dad, and I believe in you.
I believe in mom and dad, and I believe in you.
Well I don't believe that heaven waits
For only those who congregate
I like to think of God as love
He's down below, He's up above
He's watching people everywhere
He knows who does and doesn't care
And I'm an ordinary man
Sometimes I wonder who I am.
For only those who congregate
I like to think of God as love
He's down below, He's up above
He's watching people everywhere
He knows who does and doesn't care
And I'm an ordinary man
Sometimes I wonder who I am.
But I believe in love, I believe in music
I believe in magic, and I believe in you.
I believe in magic, and I believe in you.
I know with all my certainty what's goin'
With you and me is a good thing
It's true, I believe in you.
With you and me is a good thing
It's true, I believe in you.
I don't believe virginity is
As common as it used to be
In working days and sleeping nights
That black is black and white is white
That Superman and Robin Hood
Are still alive in Hollywood
That gasoline's in short supply
The rising cost of getting by.

But I believe in love, I believe in old folks
I believe in children, I believe in you.
I believe in children, I believe in you.
I believe in love, I believe in babies
I believe in mom and dad, and I believe in you.
I believe in mom and dad, and I believe in you.
I sure hope I upped your happiness scale with that one!! Sure did mine!! Thanks for your visit! I believe in YOU!! Peace & hugs.
{{{Big Smiles}}}--he has such a nice voice, doesn't he? Have a beautiful day friend.
ReplyDeleteI've never tried Spotify. At work I use Pandora. I will have to look into it.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!
I had Pandora (free) but hated the way it would just stop and ask if you were still listening. Spotify (free) doesn't do that. I like it better.
DeleteLove the song, and the singer! It did make me happy....thanks and have a happy Wednesday.
ReplyDeleteOh, I loved that song and Don Williams sound. Wonder where he is now? Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteDon Williams' music is great! He has such a mellow voice. "They" just don't make 'em like that any more.
ReplyDeleteHope your day is blessed. ~:)
Such a great song to share on this HAPPY Wednesday! HOPE you're having an awesome day.
ReplyDeleteOH, that was a good-un! (I'd quite forgotten Don Williams.)
ReplyDeleteWill have to check out Spotify at home. Unfortunately, we're not allowed any personal listening devices at work.
