A little girl was cryin'
|
for her mama and her daddy
|
She couldn't understand why they were gone
|
She never knew the danger
|
Of talking to a stranger
|
Now the girl can't find her way back home
|
|
A little boy went walkin'
|
Down to the corner market
|
To buy a loaf of bread and an ince cream cone
|
He never knew the dnager
|
Of talkin' to a stranger
|
Now the boy can't find the way back home
|
|
Chorus:
|
Too many kids are missin'
|
Is anybody listening?
|
Won't you be the children's eyes
|
They're all alone
|
The hardest part's not knowing
|
Where they are or where they're going
|
Won't you help the children find
|
The way back home
|
|
The faces on milk cartons
|
Thrown away and soon forgotten
|
What if one of those sweet kids
|
Was your very own
|
|
Tonight those kids are weeping
|
While yours are safely sleeping
|
Won't you help the children find
|
The way back home
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Won't you help the children find
|
The way back home
|

Way Back Home
