I love the ocean on a peaceful morning
I love the freedom of a single man
I love the woman who just drives me crazy
I just canââ?¬â?¢t help it thatââ?¬â?¢s the way I am

I donââ?¬â?¢t like war
I donââ?¬â?¢t like politicians
Donââ?¬â?¢t like the one who has an angry hand
I donââ?¬â?¢t like guns
I donââ?¬â?¢t like nuclear missiles
Donââ?¬â?¢t like the one who doesnââ?¬â?¢t give a damn

Itââ?¬â?¢s all right, itââ?¬â?¢s all right
We can make love, we can fight
Itââ?¬â?¢s all right, itââ?¬â?¢s all right
We can make love, we can fight
We can make love

I love the Lord
I love the little people
I love the one who is a gentle man
I love the rivers in the Rocky Mountains
I just canââ?¬â?¢t help it thatââ?¬â?¢s the way I am

Iââ?¬â?¢ve been to Boston and Iââ?¬â?¢ve been to China
Iââ?¬â?¢ve been around the world and back again
Iââ?¬â?¢ve got a hunger that just keeps me running
I just canââ?¬â?¢t help it thatââ?¬â?¢s the way I am

Itââ?¬â?¢s all right, itââ?¬â?¢s all right
We can make love, we can fight
Itââ?¬â?¢s all right, itââ?¬â?¢s all right
We can make love, we can fight
We can make love
