Too Many Do-Goods

We got too many do goods and not enough hard working men



We got too many hands out and not enough lendin' a hand



We got too many thinkers looking for the answer in the wind



Hey we got too many do goods and not enough hard working men







We got poets and prophets and some folks are readin' the stars



If we'd look a little closer to home we might find who we are



We got all kinds of sermons in booklets and pamphlets on sin



Hey we got too many do goods and not enough hard working men



We got too many do goods...







We got clubs and committees who know all about wrong and right



Oh but I've seen some children who starved plumb to death on advice



I appreciate your sympathy and I believe in missionary work



But a little bit of bendin' down and pickin' up your brother wouldn't hurt



We got too many do goods...
