Being Different's OK With ME
© Kathleen Gibson, 1994

Amy's legs won't take her anywhere,
So she wheels around in a wheelchair,
Wheeling here, wheeling there,
Zipping around in her wheel chair.
Imagine you can't walk anywhere,
What do you do when you get to the stair?
Wheeling here, wheeling there,
Then you'll understand.

Chorus
We're all different, as different can be,
Some can't hear and some can't see,
Some can't run or climb a tree,
Being different's OK with me.
Being different's OK with me.

Johnny has a dog, 'cause he can't see,
The dog helps Johnny cross the street,
Seeing eye dog leads the way,
Stays with Johnny night and day.
Close your eyes so you can't see at all,
You'll bump into things and you might fall.
You might even walk into a wall,
Then you'll understand.

Chorus

Casey can't hear, so she talks with her hands,
Reads your lips to understand,
Talks with her hands,talks with her hands,
You can learn how then you'll understand.
Turn off the sound on your TV,
Try to understand by what you see,
Learn to talk with your hands,
Then you'll understand.

Chorus
