Lyrics:
Gimme just one thing of beauty To last me for all of my years Gimme just one thing of beauty And wash away all of my tears I won't need to get no religion When I throw all my burdens away So gimme just one thing of beauty And I'll stand at this alter and pray Gimme one thing of beauty I need one thing of beauty Baby one thing of beauty It's hard times down on the corner Yeah, there's loneliness out on the street I mean, everywhere you go there's someone you know Who suffered some kind of defeat But there's dreams being dreamed down in the doorway Of all these places nobody goes Yeah the ones that just so many [are] praising They're the ones now that nobody knows They just need one thing of beauty Maybe one thing of beauty They need one thing of beauty (That's right... That's all they need) You can keep every diamond and ruby You can forget all those pharaohs and kings Gimme just one thing of beauty Take away all these material things Gimme one thing of beauty Since it all turns to ashes and dust Gimme one thing of beauty Yeah, the rest of you can do what you must But I need.... [Chorus:] There's hard times... There's loneliness down on the street But all we need is just one thing.... When you go way down You're looking for one thing....
