I don't care what the papers say, 

Everybody's going to be OK

We just need to find a way, 

To love each other each and every day


And even though the road is slow

We figure out which way to go, and I know

It's gonna be alright


Even though the road is slow

We figure out which way to go, and I know

It's gonna be alright

It's alright

It's alright


Even though the world's on fire

And everything, seems so dire

It gets hard to stay inspired

But don't get stuck in the muck and mire, because


Even though the road is slow

We figure out which way to go, and I know

It's gonna be alright


Even though the road is slow

We figure out which way to go, and I know

It's gonna be alright

It's alright

It's alright


Just step back and understand

There might not be a master plan

So reach out and lend a hand

To everybody that you can


And even though the road is slow

We figure out which way to go, and I know

It's gonna be alright


Even though the road is slow

We figure out which way to go, and I know

It's gonna be alright

It's alright

It's alright
