歌詞

Out on a little farm

With flowers all around

Lived a man who gave up fame

To keep his feet on the ground

He fought for what was right

Spent years behind a wall

But never lost his faith

In people most of all

Pepe, you lived so free

No riches, but rich in peace

Your words go far and wide

From Uruguay to the sky

True wealth’s not money or land

It’s love, heart, and open hands

Pepe, you helped us see

What it means to truly be

He passed on the big house

Chose a simple home instead

Drove an old blue Beetle

Kept no crown on his head

Most of his paycheck

Went to folks in need

He said, “I’m not poor—

I’ve got all I need”

Pepe, you lived so free

No riches, but rich in peace

Your words go far and wide

From Uruguay to the sky

True wealth’s not money or land

It’s love, heart, and open hands

Pepe, you helped us see

What it means to truly be

He said, “Being poor

Ain’t about what you don’t own

It’s needing too much

And never feeling home”

If more lived like he did

Just one or maybe ten

The world would start to change

We’d never fight again

We’d see the biggest gift

Is time to just be still

Money’s just paper

Freedom is the thrill

We’d break those chains of want

Live life in our own way

A kinder world would rise

That no one could betray

Pepe, you showed us how

To live with heart right now

No diamonds, money or fame

Just love — and not for gain

You walked the hardest road

Still smiled and shared your light

Pepe, your life still shines

A star in darkest night

With your wife, your dog, your flowers too

You showed what’s simple, good, and true

We won’t forget the life you gave—

You changed the world in your own way
