Save the children and we might save the world |
|
It's every mother's wish for her boy and girl, oh |
|
A child was born inside this city yesterday |
|
His mother held him to her breast as she began to pray |
|
Please let them grow up to be strong and know the truth |
|
And have the chances to taste the innocence of youth |
|
The innocence of youth, the innocence of youth |
|
You know what we have to do |
|
Save the children and we might save the world |
|
It's every mother's wish for her boy and girl, oh |
|
A baby starts out with his back against the wall |
|
He has to learn to survive before he learns to crawl |
|
He needs somebody who can give him a daddy hand |
|
We brought them into this world, they deserve a chance |
|
They deserve a chance, got to have a chance |
|
Why can't we all understand? |
|
Save the baby, save him, ohh ohh, save him |
|
The world is lost in a bout of confusion |
|
Happiness, happiness, happiness is just an illusion |
|
Somewhere it must end even if we have to start |
|
Stop and start again, we're defendin' a man's sin |
|
Oh, what's going on, what's going on? |
|
I can remember another friend of mine tellin' me |
|
Change gonna come, oh, yes it will |
|
Save the children and we might save the world |
|
Every mother's wish for her boy and girl, oh |
|
Save, save the children, save, save the children |
|
Save, save the children, we gotta save the children |
|
Save, save the children, save, save the children |
|
Save, save the children, we gotta save the children |
|
Listen, headed in the wrong direction |
|
No love, no love, no love, no love, no love, no love and affection |
|
Like a [Incomprehensible] pain we tryin' to figure it out |
|
No young boys playin' in the park and havin' fun |
|
They find their manhood at the barrel of a loaded gun |
|
Can't see their future, just a tunnel with no light |
|
I'm lost in the projects runnin' from the night |
|
Runnin' from the night, runnin' from the night |
|
Runnin' from the night, runnin' from the night |
|
Scared for the rest of their life |
|
Save, save the children, save, save the children |
|
Save, save the children, save, save the children |
|
We gotta save the children, save, save the children |
|
Save, save the children |
|
Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop |
|
We've got to stop |
