Note: Skip Rogers was a young songwriter with a lot of promise. He spent
time at our house, and we tried to do what we could to help him in the music
business. He never got to achieve his potential because he died in his mid-
twenties. We heard that he was killed by a frying pan to the head, in a domestic
argument. We all had fun recording this song, and we dedicate it to him.
Jack.

I'm feelin' a change in my life
Things I've done before just don't seem right
Seems I'm looking at the world through new eyes and
I'm feeling a change in my life
Gave a dollar to a man just yesterday
When last week, I would've chased him away
But he made it all worthwhile
When he thanked me and he smiled
You've gotta help someone along the way
(Repeat chorus)
Used to worry about money and fancy clothes
But now I see through the life I chose
I judge a man for what he is
Naturally, the right is his
Whether I'm in favor or opposed
(Repeat chorus)
I remember all the times I used to say
The world's sure a bad place today
If everyone would do their part
A little less hate and a little more heart
The world would be a better place to stay
(Repeat chorus twice)
I'm feelin' a change in my life
(Repeat chorus twice and fade)
