Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Baby born in New York City Wrapped in a blanket that's tattered an' worn Mother doin' the best she can Teachin' hope in a hopeless world Eldest son, he stayed in school Listened to his mother, didn't drink or use Yet, every job he wants he gets refused It takes hope in a hopeless world Lookin' for hope in a hopeless world Searchin' for love in such hateful times Tryin' to stay strong when my mind gets weak Looking for hope in a hopeless world On the corner stands a young girl The home she left was from a better part of town Her daddy did things she couldn't talk about Is there hope in a hopeless world? Ya got a quarter for the homeless man? Spare some change for the soldiers Who fought the war Put some money in their hats an' in their tins Give them hope in a hopeless world Lookin' for hope in a hopeless world Searchin' for love in such hateful times Tryin' to stay strong when my mind gets weak Looking for hope in a hopeless world Lookin' for hope in a hopeless world Tryin' to ease my mind We got to listen to the voice inside That speaks of love, don't compromise Realise time is passin' by There are mountains to climb, We can't be standing still Churches are full, but the prayers are not heard Saturday's child don't wanna go to Sunday School Whatever happened to the Golden Rule Teach them hope in a hopeless world Somebody out there's got to listen Somebody out there's got to know What I'm talkin' 'bout Raise your hand, raise your hand if you're with me There's hope in a hopeless world Lookin' for hope in a hopeless world Searchin' for love in such hateful times Tryin' to stay strong when my mind gets weak Looking for hope in a hopeless world Lookin' for hope in a hopeless world Gotta find love in a hopeless world
