White collar, blue collar, hillbilly, high dollar
Hot head, pot head, non-believer, holy water
Big city, small town, y'all take a look around
People are differentHeavy metal, hip hop, steal toe, flip flops
Sip it slow, cold beer, hits you fast, whiskey shot
Accent North, South, good as gold, sailor mouth
People are differentYeah, we all know it's true
But it don't mean that me and you
Can't walk down a street
And smile at a stranger
Heart on your sleeve
And love thy neighbor
No matter what shape
No matter what color
Break bread instead of fighting each otherSlip on a pair of another man's shoes
You'll see by the time you get back
This old world would be a whole lot better place
If we'd all just embraced the fact
That people are different
People are differentLeft wing, right wing, jail house, freedom ring
Old school, new school, everything in-between
Like a snowflake no fingerprint's the same
And people are different
I wish that it was something that we all understood
Lord knows it'd do us all some goodTo walk down a street
And smile at a stranger
Heart on your sleeve
And love thy neighbor
No matter what shape
No matter what color
Break bread instead of fighting each otherSlip on a pair of another man's shoes
You'll see by the time you get back
This old world would be a whole lot better place
If we'd all just embraced the fact
That people are different
Yeah, people are differentYou can turn on the TV
Change the channel if you don't like what you see
You can get your money back if it ain't your size
You can throw it in the trash if you don't like it
But listen, people are differentSo walk down a street
And smile at a stranger
Heart on your sleeve
And love thy neighbor
No matter what shape
No matter what color
Break bread instead of fighting each otherSlip on a pair of another man's shoes
You'll see by the time you get back
This old world would be a whole lot better place
If we'd all just embraced the fact
That people are different
People are different
People are different
Whoa, yeah
