The Ills |
| Woohoo, a baby is born |
| The father’s gone |
| Can’t live with what he’s done |
| You know now Mama’s torn |
| She can’t afford to raise her son |
| You know the ills of this world they can get you down |
| You know the ills of this world they can get you down |
| But then you get back up |
| Way down in New Orleans |
| The city screams |
| They’ve gone black and white |
| And when the levys broke |
| Woo, the sink will float |
| And people lost their lives |
| You know they needed aid |
| They hoped and prayed |
| But it was just too late |
| And now the family’s cried |
| They know inside |
| Didn’t have to be that way |
| You know the ills of this world they can get you down |
| You know the ills of this world they can get you down |
| But then you get back up |
| You know the ills of this world they can get you down |
| You know the ills of this world they can get you down |
| But then you get back up |
