God Save the Child歌词

作词 : Chris Jones
作曲 : Chris Jones
A dark night on the highway and an oncoming truck
Some poor suburbanite just ran out of luck
A wife and two children, waiting at home
They’re gonna find out soon enough
That they’re all alone

Sometimes this old world can be so cold
Bring a grown man to his knees every once in awhile
But tell me, what’re you gonna do
If you’re only 3 years old
And your only weapon’s a smile?
God save the child

Everywhere folks are fighting
Nobody seems to know what for
Nobody’s listening lo the victims
Of a hundred civil wars in the name of whoever
Can’t we stop these atrocities
The dead, the dying, the walking wounded
And a million refugees

Sometimes this old world can be so cold
Bring a grown man to his knees every once in awhile
But tell me, what’re you gonna do
If you’re only 3 years old
And your only weapon’s a smile?
God save the child

This was a beautiful planet
But that was once upon a time
Now, this ain’t no fairy tale
What we’re doing is a crime
How are you going to tell your children
How we destroyed the Earth?
If I we can’t lead by example
How will they know what life is worth?

Sometimes this old world can be so cold
Bring a grown man to his knees every once in awhile
But tell me, what’re you gonna do
If you’re only 3 years old
And your only weapon’s a smile?

Sometimes this old world can be so cold
Bring a grown man to his knees every once in awhile
But tell me, what’re you gonna do
If you’re only 3 years old
And your only weapon’s a smile?
God save the child

God save the child ...
