Title: Helps Me To Know
Words & Music by: Rick Denzien

Well I know that you haven’t got much money
And I know that you haven’t got fame
And I don’t know anyone who does
We keep on working just the same
And we play the rich man’s game
But it seems like – seems like we always loose
Though you try hard and I try hard too
There isn’t much you can do
With a heart torn in two

But on a night like tonight it helps me to know
My steps are ordered in the path I go and
I know you try but there’s more than just getting by
I know you try but there’s more than just getting by

Well you know I could go for a fortune
I could get into the push and grab
But I don’t know anyone who makes it alive
You lay your soul down on a slab
And your life becomes drab
Working so hard just to keep your car
And you spend your time trying to sell
Hide so no one can tell
That you’re not at all well

But on a night like tonight it helps me to know
My steps are ordered in the path I go and
I know you got that itch but there’s more than just getting rich
I know you got that itch but there’s more than just getting rich

And I think that we could fly – if we weren’t so tied down
And I always knew something was wrong – and I know it won’t go on

Well I know that this life is a struggle
And those who have the most really have the least
Making big plans for here can be a waste
Cause god knows this will end
And I can’t pretend
To know love or feel love I got to hope and pray
Cause If I live for money – I can’t know love too
Are the words speaking to you too
What are we gonna do?

But on a night like tonight it helps me to know
My steps are ordered in the path I go and
I’d lay that money down and let love – love come around
I’d lay that money down because love – love can be found
You can’t serve two masters
