Out past the highway
Away from the city
Free as the life I'm living
I'm a countryman
Raised up in the oil lands
Making a living hanging drywall
Doing my part to help 'em build tall
This country, man
Well, I found out somehow
One way or another
Hang around another man too long
He'll start to feel like a brother
You learn to listen through a long drawl
You soon see past the colors
Come to find he's a lot like you
He's just got a different mother
No man's an island
Imaginary walls keep us from our friends
Do what you can
Help lend a hand
To your fellow countryman
Now I'm living in the city
In the shadows of towers
Watching all of the people
Scramble 'round for hours
Say the world's gonna end soon
They've been saying for ages
Don't buy into the rage
Just help save your country, man
No man's an island
Imaginary walls keep us from our friends
Do what you can
Help lend a hand
To your fellow countryman
Go on and help each other
Come on and lend a hand
My sister and my brother
Take care of one another
Go on and help each other
Come on and lend a hand
My sister and my brother
Take care of one another
No man's an island
Imaginary walls keep us from our friends
Do what you can
Help lend a hand
To your fellow countryman
