"All About People"
As performed by The Paul Thorn Band on the album "A Long Way from Tupelo"
Written by: Paul Thorn, Billy Maddox
It's twelve o'clock, she's had a long night
Twirlin' round' a pole by a neon light
Some were kind and some were crass
And some just wanted to kiss her
She puts her wig in her bag and closes the lid
She's paying for college and raising a kid
It's not in her heart but it's sure in her head
She hangs up her g-string and goes to bed
We're all reading from the same book
We're just on different pages
So go tell Lois Lane there's no Superman
Don't think Mickey Mouse is waiting down in Disneyland
It's not a church if it's just got a steeple
Just look inside - it's all about people
He's been an accountant for fifteen years
Sometimes he wonders what he's doing here
He's got a tattoo of a skull on his chest
Beneath a white, pressed shirt, a tie and a vest
We're all reading from the same book
We're just on different pages
So go tell Lois Lane there's no Superman
Don't think Mickey Mouse is waiting down in Disneyland
It's not a church if it's just got a steeple
Just look inside - it's all about people
There's good folks everywhere, yes there is!
Everybody's got a story and a cross to bear, so
Go tell Lois Lane there's no Superman
Don't think Mickey Mouse is waiting down in Disneyland
It's not a church if it's just got a steeple
Just look inside - it's all about
Go tell Lois Lane there's no Superman
Don't think Mickey Mouse is waiting down in Disneyland
It's not a church if it's just got a steeple
Just look inside - it's all about people
