On this earth not alone we stand Outstretched arm and upturned hand Never knowing when the shakes steady And 'till now we have seldom seen And I will go if you go with me Understand I will wait for thee I'll try to catch up if you move quickly If the wind does blow
And oh sir If you ever lose your way You can call upon this family You can call upon this day And oh ma'am If you ever lose your way You can call up on this family You can call upon this day
'Cause you're my present my future My lesson my teacher Oh, My world is still You're my guard you're my guide In my life I confide To ever shelter your will And my words are forever my blanket my shiver Whatever you give I'll never lack
You're my chorus my refrain The verse of my first pain Let the voices come barrelling back
'Cause I can stand to stay right where I am Let the water fill this hand Bring it to your mouth Let it pass beyond your lips No gale can down this ship
And I'll stand on your shoulders To watch us grow older I can see us far along the road As the trail grows deeper your my giver my keeper Laughter for years untold
'Cause I can stand to stay right where I am Let the water fill this hand Bring it to your mouth And pass beyond your lips No gale can down this ship
And wherever you go there you are And if I go I won't go far Wherever you go There you are And if I go I won't go far
And oh sir If you ever lose your way You can call upon this family You can call upon this day

I work in the kitchen At an old-folks store I do my best But I too am getting old I do the dishes But lately I've been dropping plates Since i get older my hands are starting to shake
So Mr. Larkin see I, I've got to hold this job Did you misspeak when you told me she was all but gone Mr. Larkin got me my one weeks pay But don't ask me to leave her, I cant afford that way
Ten years ago my wife took sick so I brought her here, my job I quit i started working for the home so I could be by her every day we couldn't afford the cost in any other way

Chorus
I see the argument your making And I understand you've got to do your job And believe me I know she's turning angel But you see this women is all I got
I did not know but Someone died in my sleep last night I tried to reach the phone But in the darkness i knocked over the light And can you speak up A semi just jack knifed on the turnpike I'm on a pay phone And it's gettin' to be a cold cold night

Well indeed you lost your friend On the south side of where you live Heard the call and had to leave Boarded up windows burned out brick Oh please don't you get A little know fact about the place you set It's always an empty plate It's just there so we don't Forget your loss and your history
Well indeed you found your friend On the south side of where you live All curled around his knees Was it worse then you fret The punishment you get Hollow points in the concrete
Have you wailed for the likes of the walls and hunger strikes Are you more than what you hate Your fear will not fade the lines That paint your face It's a black cab motorcade Black cab motorcade
Well this one must be lost At this ungodly time of day A broken curfew has a cost A tidy sum you'll pay Teacher won't you teach your lesson Though the young are hard to break Mr smith and mr wesson And the cost of school these days
Well indeed you found your friend On the south side of where you live He was up and walking again And have you heard what's happened since Oh please don't you get Is there any honor outside of revenge Don't let her set another empty place We swear that we won't
Forget your loss and your history Forget your cross and your history
Have you wailed for the likes of the walls and hunger strikes Are you more than what you hate Well your fear will not fade the lines That paint your face It's a black cab motorcade Black cab motorcade Black cab motorcade
The women in the valley forge They go day to day Don't let them raid my home and My home and place But the men they can't see boyond So they war and war They don't remember What they came here for

Women in the valley forged her The once home of the brave Don't let them raid me home and My home and place But the men they can't see beyond So they become what they hate They don't see that the moon has just Yeah the moon is just getting its legs
People to people are so unjust day Carry yourself well so Carry yourself well People to people are so unjust Carry yourself well so Carry yourself well
And you don't even close the barn door After the horses have scattered And no one knows anymore Where all the souls have gathered Though they will keep an eye on what you do And when the people have spoken We won't cry mercy on Mercy on you Cause we will We will be alive just broken
People to people are So unjust they say Carry yourself well Carry yourself well People to people are so unjust they say Carry yourself well so Carry yourself well
