| Why was i born | |
| Why am i livin' | |
| What do i get | |
| What am i givin' | |
| Why do i want for things | |
| I dare not hope for | |
| What can i hope for | |
| I wish i knew | |
| Why do i try | |
| To draw you near me | |
| Why do i cry | |
| You never hear me | |
| I'm a poor fool | |
| But what can i do | |
| Oh baby why was i born |
