This song is adapted from an article by Andrea Widburg in American Thinker (https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2026/08/if-you-love-someone-tell-them-and-be-specific).
Catch People Being Good
Every day is a good day
Some days are better than others
I win in all the ways that count
Family and friends
Good enough health
Reasonable material comfort
A fulfilling job
I never tire counting my blessings
This I know is true
It’s incumbent on all of us
To catch those we love being good
And tell them that we love them
The happiest people in America:
Men who are married and
Women with children
Parenting is tough
But the rewards are unparalleled
Children give life purpose
Here’s my life philosophy
Catch people being good
If they’re close to you
Tell them you love them
Tell that to them whenever you can
Don’t be shy
Do it often
You’re a good person
You are thoughtful
You are kind
You make my life happier
I see you
I value what I see
Don’t reach the end of your life
Regretting the things you did not say
Catch people being good
Because that makes their world better
And that makes your world better
If you love someone
Tell them you love them
Tell them often
Be specific
And tell them again
If you love someone
Tell them you love them
Tell them often
Be specific
And tell them again
