Do What You Can (Duet Version)

[Verse 1: Jon Bon Jovi & Jennifer Nettles]
Tonight they're shuttin' down the borders
And they boarded up the schools
Small towns are rollin' up their sidewalks
One less paycheck comin' through
I know you're feelin' kinda nervous
We're all a little bit confused
Nothin's the same, this ain't a game
We gotta make it through

[Verse 2: Jennifer Nettles & Jon Bon Jovi]
As we wave outside the window
Older loved ones stay inside
Moms and babies blowin' kisses
May be saving someone's life
They had to cancel graduation
It ain't fair to Skype the prom
Our kids sit home in isolation
TV news is always on

[Chorus: Jon Bon Jovi & Jennifer Nettles]
When you can't do what you do
You do what you can
This ain't my prayer, it's just a thought I'm wanting to send
'Round here, we bend but don't break
Down here, we all understand
When you can't do what you do
You do what you can

[Verse 3: Jennifer Nettles & Jon Bon Jovi]
The chicken farm from Arkansas
Brought workers PPE
Not before, five hundred more
Had succumbed to this disease
Honest men and honest women
Workin' for an honest wage
I got a hundred point one fever,
And we still got bills to pay

[Chorus: Jon Bon Jovi & Jennifer Nettles]
When you can't do what you do
You do what you can
This ain't my prayer, it's just a thought I'm wanting to send
'Round here, we bend but don't break
Down here, we all understand
When you can't do what you do
You do what you can

[Bridge: Jon Bon Jovi, Jennifer Nettles, Jon Bon Jovi & Jennifer Nettles]
They built a hospital on East Meadow
In Central Park last night
Doctors, nurses, truckers, grocery store clerks
Mannin' the front lines
I saw a Red Cross on the Hudson
They turned off the Broadway lights
Another ambulance screams by (Screams by)
There by the grace of God, go I

[Verse 4: Jon Bon Jovi & Jennifer Nettles]
Although I'll keep my social distance
What this world needs is a hug
Until we find the vaccination
There's no substitute for love
So love yourself and love your family
Love your neighbor and your friend
Ain't it time we loved a stranger?
They're just a friend you ain't met yet
Oh

[Chorus: Jon Bon Jovi, Jennifer Nettles, Jon Bon Jovi & Jennifer Nettles]
When you can't do what you do
You do what you can (Do what you can)
This ain't my prayer, it's just a thought I'm wanting to send
'Round here, we bend but don't break
Down here, we all understand
When you can't do what you do
You do what you can
When you can't do what you do
You do what you can
