Gotta Find A Way

(Music & Lyrics © Ronald D. Crowder, Jim Casey, Frank Hames)

ASCAP

I wrote this with my friend Jim Casey and his friend, Frank Hames. I have yet to meet Frank in person or even communicate with him. He had sent a keyboard riff to Jim. Jim brought it to me and we both agreed we should play around with it. We played around with it for about an hour and came up with this song. We created a rough demo and I continued to play around with it for a long time, moving things here and there, rewriting lyrics, adding a bridge. After quite a few revisions and lots of time in the recording studio working on the production and the arrangement, I molded it into what is now on the recording.

Listen to song

Gotta find a way 

(Gotta find a way) 

To make this a better place 

Have a little faith 

(Have a little faith) 

I know we can get there 

Make a better space  

for the human race 

Care for each other

 

Gotta find a way 

(Gotta find a way) 

Where no one hurts or suffers 

Brothers and sisters 

We’ve got to have a plan 

Time’s a wastin’ 

Got to be a better man 

Gotta stop the fightin’ 

Hatin’ on each other 

Respect your sisters  

And think about your mother 

 

Gotta find a way 

(Gotta find a way) 

To make this a better place 

Have a little faith 

(Have a little faith) 

I know we can get there 

Make a better space  

for the human race 

Care for each other 

Gotta find a way 

(Gotta find a way) 

Where no one hurts or suffers 

Kids are the future 

They deserve a lovely world 

Spread Joy and Love 

To all the boys and girls

 

Keep dreams alive 

Live life without fear 

If we all start giving 

We’ll be cryin’ happy tears

 

Gotta find a way 

(Gotta find a way) 

To make this a better place

 

Have a little faith 

(Have a little faith) 

I know we can get there 

Make a better space  

for the human race 

Care for each other

 

Gotta find a way 

(Gotta find a way) 

Where no one hurts or suffers
