I have seen the poor in pain,
that is why I can’t remain,
these things are never understood,
but I know talk won’t do no good.
If you want to live a lie,
you will pass this place on by,
and forget you ever knew,
of the things I’ve said to you.
But when the day is done,
and if your feeling low,
just spare a thought for those,
who have no place left to go.
