Lyrics
There's a boy who plays down in the coal yard His mother just got her divorce And every day he goes a little hungry And takes it as a matter of course Tho' he's never really known a daddy He's never had too many toys He believes in a heart filled with hope Somewhere there's a glimmer of joy And often I have pondered the question In my own way I am but one Why must the bеautiful children Pay for what we have donе? And if anything was ever said or written That I hold in my heart to be true It is suffer little children, come unto me You will all be rewarded and loved In the Kingdom with me Theres a girl who plays down in the ghetto They come and put her brother back in jail And every day you see her on the sidewalks Waitin' on his love in the mail And tho' she kinda' likes the social worker And the Foster family really doesn't mind 'Cause she believes in a heart filled with hope Someone will come forward and be kind And often I have pondered the question Lord in my own way I am but one Why must the beautiful children Pay for what we have done? And if anything was ever said or written That I hold in my heart to be true It is suffer little children to come unto me You will all be rewarded and loved In the Kingdom with me In the Kingdom with me
