This is where I live
Taking a walk in the neighborhood
See if I can give
Help my sister get all she should
Will it ever change
Is tomorrow gonna be the same
No time for love
And the ways of the world
Is it ever gonna change
No more time for push and shove
Push and shove, no time
Push and shove, no time
Because, it's hard to hide it
When it's lookin' back at you
Somebody talkin' with foolish pride
Even a hobo's got a mother
Somewhere cryin' Lord have mercy on my baby's soul
For one world we've got to pray
We can make it if we go hand in hand
Surely brighten up someone's day
Might even make it to the promised land
Because it's hard to hide it
When it's lookin' back at you
Somebody talkin' with foolish pride
Even a hobo's got a mother
Somewhere, cryin' Lord have mercy on my baby's soul
