Lyrics

This Ain't No Big Deal Ed Bentley/ Jon Philibert

She was gone and I was hurting, feeling sorry for myself
So I turned the TV on and grabbed a beer
On the news came a story, bout a little boy gone missing
The family lived not very far from here
Then an 80 year old woman, mugged for seven dollars
Hurt so bad, next day she passed away
Suddenly my heartbreak didn't seem to matter
I knew in time that I would be okay

Chorus
Ooh, This ain't no big deal, no this ain't no big deal
Oh sure I want her back and I hate the way I feel
But there's a big ole world out there
Where people hurt for real
And at least someday my heart is gonna heal
ooh ooh, this ain't no big deal

Didn't wanna be alone, too much time for thinking
So I slipped down to my favorite corner bar
Bartender set me up, he was making conversation
With an ole man next to me who'd lost his farm
Now It's a crying shame, I know you worked hard all your life
Then the bank steps in and takes away your keys
The ole man just smiled, pointed at the TV
Said them soldiers coming home, lost more than me

Chorus 2
Ooh, This ain't no big deal,no this ain't no big deal
Oh sure, I lost my farm, and I hate the way I feel
But them boys have lost much more
Nothing good about them wars
And I can't imagine how their family's feel
Ooh, ooh, this ain't no big deal

Bridge
That night I thought about my life
My troubles all seemed small
Remembering the one who paid
The biggest price of all

Chours 3
Oh, This ain't no big deal, mine ain't no big deal
Compared to the man, on that cross on a hill
When I think of how he suffered, all that he went through
My life don't seem so bad and never will
Ooh ooh, this ain't no big deal
Oh No
This ain't no big deal
