Lyrics
Somebody's Child
Somebody's child wore the wrong color
Somebody's child fired right away
Somebody' child no longer has a brother
'Cause somebody's child didn't come home today
Now what can I say to save somebody's child
Save somebody's child
Somebody's child saw you slap down their mother
Somebody's child remembers just what you do
Somebody's child done shot down another
'Cause somebody's child turned out just like you
Now what can we do to save somebody's child
Save somebody's child
We've got no time for theories
We've got to fall down on our knees
And pray to the One
Because He knows what it likes when you lose a son
Somebody's child is going off to college
Somebody's child is running wild in the street
Somebody's child will gain wisdom and knowledge
I pray that's the child that my child will be
People can't you see we've got to save somebody's child
Save somebody's child
It's not too late to save somebody's child
Let's not hesitate we've got no time to wait
No hesitating no time for waiting
We've got to save somebody's child
