There but for Fortune |
| Show me the prison, show me the jail |
| Show me the prisoner whose face is growin' pale |
| And I’ll show you a young man with so many reasons why |
| There but for fortune, go you or go i |
| You and i |
| Show me the alley, show me the train |
| Show me the hobo who sleeps out in the rain |
| And I’ll show you a young man with many reasons why |
| There but for fortune, go you or go i |
| You and i |
| Show me the famine, show me the frail |
| Eyes with no future, that show how we fail |
| And I’ll show you the children with so many reasons why |
| There but for fortune, go you or go i |
| You and i |
| Show me the country where bombs had to fall |
| Show me the ruins of buildings once so tall |
| And I’ll show you a young land with many reasons why |
| There but for fortune, go you or go i |
| You and i |
| You and i |
| There but for fortune, go you or go i |
| You and i |
