Sat up thinking late last night   Do they have a way to count the stars   Theres a lot of scientific minds   they claim to know what all the answers are   But thats the case      How much does the world weigh   Somebody's probably worked it out   You could look up what all the experts say   But all you got to do is look around   Youll be surprised to notice   Ask that girl that trying to make the rent   pay the bills and feed the kids    Six months ago there daddy walked away   Ask that man whose family stayed around    When he finally put the bottle down    Now he fights that battle everyday   How much does the world weigh      The Human spirit is a funny thing   How far it bends before it breaks   And to keep the world from folding in How much strength does it take   Well Dont ask me      Ask that couple in the waiting room   The doctors say its still too soon   Its their little girl All they can do is pray   Ask that little boy whos gotta choose   Mom or Dad either way he'll lose   Breaking up and he thinks hes to blame   How much does the world weigh      Ask that man whos hanging on the cross   His last breath would save the lost   The answers in the tears on his face       How Much does the world weigh   How Much does the world weigh   How Much does the world weigh
