What about the children
Playing in the street
Dreaming of that good life
No shoes on their feet
Where is their mama, where is their daddy
They need somebody we all agree
It doesn’t’ maUer when life is shaUered
To honest people like you
What about that good girl
Working on the street
Giving up that good good
So her babies can eat
Tell me what would you do
If you were in her shoes
It wasn’t her dream
We all agree
Yes we all agree
It doesn’t maUer when life is shaUered
To heartless people like you
What about he children
Life ain’t what it seems
What about the children
All their broken dreams
Every day’s a struggle
Life gone down the drain
No one gives a damn
Makes me want to scream
What about that good man
Locked up from the street
Trying to make a dollar
To put shoes on his baby’s feet
There mamas working, the Rme he’s serving
They need somebody we all agree
It doesn’t maUer when life is shaUered
To heartless people like you
What about the Children
