Friend Of The Poor

歌詞

On the African plains a young mother weeps for her hungry child She prays he'll survive With tear-filled eyes she looks up to heaven and calls Your name She pours out her pain You know her name and You hear her cries Friend of the poor help me through the night Help me in the fight, come to my rescue Friend of the poor take these skin and bones Make this heart a home, come to my rescue Friend of the poor On the streets of LA an old man lies in his cardboard home He feels so alone With tear stained eyes he looks up to heaven and prays a prayer Is anyone there? You know his name and You hear his cries Friend of the poor help me through the night Help me in the fight, come to my rescue Friend of the poor take these skin and bones Make this heart a home, come to my rescue It's getting dark, it's getting late It's cold outside the rich man's gate And I'm wondering do you have any friends around here? Who are friends of the poor to help me through the night Help me in the fight, come to my rescue Friend of the poor take these skin and bones Give this heart a home, come to my rescue Friend of the poor help me through the night Help me in the fight Friend of the poor help me through the night Help me in the fight, come to my rescue Friend of the poor take these skin and bones Give this heart a home, come to my rescue Friend of the poor
