Save the Children |
| 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 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 |
