|
Show me the prison, show me the jail
|
Show me the prisoner, whose life has gone stale
|
And I'll show you, young man,
|
With so many reasons why
|
there but for fortune, go you or I......mm.mm
|
|
Show me the alley, show me the train
|
Show me the hobo, who sleeps out in the rain
|
And I'll show you, young man,
|
With so many reasons why
|
there but for fortune ,go you or I, mm.mm
|
|
Show me the whiskey, stains on the floor
|
Show me the drunkard, as he stumbles out the door
|
And I'll show you, young man
|
with so many reasons why
|
there but for fortune go you or I, mmm,mm
|
|
Show me the country, where the bombs had to fall
|
Show me the ruins of the buildings, once so tall
|
And I'll show you, young land
|
with so many reasons why
|
there but for fortune go you and I, you and I.
