I believe kids oughta stay kids as long as they can
Turn off the screen, go climb a tree, get dirt 
on their hands
I believe we gotta forgive and make amends
'Cause nobody gets a second chance to make new old friends
I believe in working hard for what you've got
Even if it don't add up to a hell of a lot
I believe most people are good
And most mama's oughta qualify for sainthood
I believe most Friday nights look better under neon 
or stadium lights
I believe you love who you love
Ain't nothing you should ever be ashamed of
I believe this world ain't half as bad as it looks
I believe most people are good
I believe them streets of gold are worth the work
But I still wanna go even if they were paved in dirt
I believe that youth is spent well on the young
'Cause wisdom in your teens would be a lot less fun
I believe if you just go by the nightly news
Your faith in all mankind would be the first 
thing you lose
I believe most people are good
And most mama's oughta qualify for sainthood
I believe most Friday nights look better under neon or 
stadium lights
I believe you love who you love
Ain't nothing you should ever be ashamed of
I believe this world ain't half as bad as it looks
I believe most people are good
I believe that days go slow and years go fast
And every breath's a gift, the first one to the last
I believe most people are good
And most mama's oughta qualify for sainthood
I believe most Friday nights look better under neon or 
stadium lights
I believe you love who you love
Ain't nothing you should ever be ashamed of
I believe this world ain't half as bad as it looks
I believe most people are good
I believe most people are good
I believe most people are good
