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 different
Heavy metal, hip-hop, steel toe, flip flops
Sip it slow, cold beer, hits you fast, whiskey shot
Accent, North, South, good as gold, sailor mouth
People are different

Yeah, we all know it's true
But it don't mean that me and you

Can't walk down the 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 fightin' each other
Slip on a pair of another man's shoes
You'll see by the time you get back
This whole world would be a whole lot better place
If we'd all just embrace the fact
That people are different
People are different

Left wing, right wing, jailhouse, freedom ring
Old school, new school, everything in between
Like a snowflake, no fingerprint the same
And people are different

I wish that it was somethin' that we all understood
Lord knows it'd do us all some good

To walk down the 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 fightin' each other
Slip on a pair of another man's shoes
You'll see by the time you get back
This whole world would be a whole lot better place
If we'd all just embrace the fact
That people are different
Yeah, people are different

You 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 different

So walk down the 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 fightin' each other
Slip on a pair of another man's shoes
You'll see by the time you get back
This whole world would be a whole lot better place
If we'd all just embrace the fact
That people are different
People are different
People are different
Whoa, whoa, yeah Writer/s: Hillary Lee Lindsey, Mark L. Holman, Michael Hardy
