LYRICFLUENTDo What You Can Lyrics by Bon Jovi Bon Jovi
Below, you will find the lyrics for Do What You Can by Bon Jovi.
Tonight they're shutting down the borders
And they boarded up the schools
Small towns are rolling up the sidewalks
One less paycheck's coming through
I know you're feeling kind of nervous
We're all a little bit confused
Nothing's the same, this ain't a game
We've gotta make it through
Verse 1
As we wave outside the window
Older loved ones stay inside
Moms and babies blowing kisses
Maybe saving someone's life
They had to cancel graduation
It ain't fair to scrap the prom
Our kids sit home in isolation
TV news is always on
Chorus 1
When you can't do what you do
You do what you can
This ain't my prayer
It's just a thought I'm wanting to send
Chorus 1
Around here we bend but don't break
Down here we all understand
When you can't do what you do
You do what you can
Verse 2
The chicken farm from Arkansas bought workers P.P.E
Not before 500 more had succumbed to this disease
Honest men and honest women
Working for an honest wage
Verse 2
I got a hundred point one fever
And we still got bills to pay
Chorus 2
When you can't do what you do
You do what you can
This ain't my prayer
It's just a thought I'm wanting to send
Chorus 2
Around here we bend but don't break
Down here we all understand
When you can't do what you do
You do what you can
Bridge
They built a hospital on East Meadow in Central Park last night
Doctors, nurses, truckers, grocery store clerks, manning the front line
I saw Red Cross on the Hudson
They turned off the Broadway lights
Another ambulance screams by
There, by the grace of God, go I
Verse 3
Although I'll keep my social distance
What this world needs is a hug
Until we find the vaccination
There's no substitute for love
So love yourself and love your family
Love your neighbor and your friend
Ain't it time we love the stranger?
It's just a friend you ain't met yet
Chorus 3
When you can't do what you do
You do what you can
This ain't my prayer
It's just a thought I'm wanting to send
Chorus 3
Around here we bend but don't break
Down here we all understand
When you can't do what you do
You do what you can
When you can't do what you do
You do what you can
