Just Like Me and You
America SCORES Chicago
Chalmers 3rd-5th Grade Girls Team
Help the homeless,
Yeah, that’s what we said.
You can’t treat them like garbage
just because they don’t have a roof over their head.
CCIL (repeat )x4
it could happen to you.
We’re the Chalmers Cavaliers
here to tell you what you can do.
Donate money.
Volunteer your time.
Read books to kids.
Write a poem.
Draw pictures for the families.
Cook a meal.
Shake their hand.
Smile and laugh.
We need to understand
the lesson that we planned.
CCIL (repeat x4)
They might need a friend.
The CCIL knows what to do.
Think about how we can help.
Homeless people have talents too.
At first we felt sad
because we didn’t know what to do.
Now we understand that they are families,
just like me and you.
Happiness comes from who we are
not from what we have.
So do something to make a difference,
and you will feel glad.
There we are folks. From the mouths of babes. "Happiness comes from who we are/ not from what we have."
