What Is Life? |
Is there any hope for them? |
Is there any hope for us? |
A poor man’s life, as I see it, |
Is living 'cause he must |
What are the chances of him, |
Making it to the top? |
When the forces are working hard |
To see to it he drops |
Young men and women, |
Trying hard, can’t get a job |
Little children on the street, |
They all should be in school |
Still others in the fields |
Working day and night |
While others walk around, |
It’s a terrible sight |
Is there any hope for them? |
Is there any hope for us? |
A poor man’s life, as I see it, |
Is living till he’s dust |
What are the chances of him, |
Making it to the top? |
When the forces are working hard |
To see to it he drops |
Oh, is there any any hope for us? |
Young men and women, |
Trying hard, can’t get a job |
Little children on the street, |
They all should be in school |
Still others in the fields |
Working day and night |
While others walk around, |
It’s a terrible sight |
Is there any hope for them? |
Is there any hope for us? |
A poor man’s life, as I see it, |
Is living 'cause he must |
What are the chances of him, |
Making it to the top? |
When the forces are working hard |
To see to it he drops |
Is there any hope for them? |
Is there any hope for us? |
A poor man’s life, as I see it, |
Is living till he’s dust |
When will he ever be paid |
For the work he has done? |
Yeah, if poverty ain’t no crime, |
Then stealing sure ain’t none |
Is there any hope for them? |
Is there any hope for us? |
A poor man’s life, as I see it, |
Is living 'cause he must. |
