[00:11.59] There is a woman in Somalia
[00:16.40] Scraping for pearls by the roadside
[00:21.47] There is a force stronger than nature
[00:26.49] Keeps her will alive
[00:31.61] That is how she lives her life
[00:36.43] She is dying to survive
[00:41.43] I don’t know what she’s made of
[00:46.61] But I would like to be that brain
[00:50.77] She cries to the heavens above
[00:55.42] There’s a stone in my heart
[00:59.99] She lives a life she didn’t choose
[01:04.39] And it hurts like brand new shoes
[01:10.33] Yes, it hurts like brand new shoes
[01:20.47] And it hurts like brand new shoes
[01:26.39] There is a woman in Rwanda
[01:36.48] The sun shows her no mercy
[01:41.74] The same sky we lay under
[01:46.80] It burns her to the bone
[01:51.65] Long is afternoon shadows
[01:56.33] It’s gonna take her to get home
[02:01.78] Each gray carefully wrapped up
[02:06.72] Pearls for her little girl
[02:10.93] Hallelujah, Hallelujah
[02:20.93] She cries to the heavens above
[02:25.36] There’s a stone in my heart
[02:30.78] She lives a life she didn’t choose
[02:34.33] And it hurts like brand new shoes
[02:41.42] Yes, it hurts like brand new shoes
[02:50.86] And it hurts like brand new shoes
[03:01.61] There was a womanin Somalia
[03:06.49] There was a woman in Rwanda
[03:11.86] There was a woman in Tibet
[03:16.49] There is a woman in a Congo
[03:19.45] And she hurts like brand new shoes
[03:31.83] Hallelujah, Hallelujah
[03:46.33] Hallelujah, Hallelujah
[00:11.59] There is a woman in Somalia
[00:16.40] Scraping for pearls by the roadside
