How Much Does The World Weigh Lyrics - Tracy Byrd

I stayed up thinking late last night 

Do they have a way to count the stars? 

There's a lot of scientific minds 

That claim to know what all the answers are 

Well, if that's the case 

How much does the world weigh? 

Somebody's probably worked it out 

You could look up what the experts say 

But all you gotta do is look around 

You'd be surprised who knows 

Ask that woman trying to make the rent 

Pay the bills and feed the kids 

Six months ago their daddy walked away 

Ask that man whose family stayed around 

'Cause he finally put that bottle down 

Now he fights that battle everyday 

Hey, 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 caving in 

How much strength does it take? 

Well, don't ask me 

Ask that couple in the waiting room 

The doctors say it's still too soon 

It's their little girl and all they can do is pray 

Ask that little boy whose gotta choose 

Mom or dad, either way he'll lose 

They're breaking up and he thinks he's to blame 

Hey, how much does the world weigh? 

Ask that Man hanging on the cross 

His last breath will save the lost 

The answer's in the tears on His face 

Hey, how much does the world weigh? 

How much does the world weigh? 

How much does the world weigh?
