God bless the child (78rpm version)
[01:03.03][00:19.41][00:07.41]Hallelujah, hallelujah,
[01:10.33][00:14.77]God bless the child who suffers
God bless the young without mothers
[03:32.48][02:51.25][02:31.63][02:23.81][02:17.50][01:56.44][01:43.35][01:29.05][01:01.71][00:48.55] [00:34.11]
This child is homeless,
That child's on crack
One plays with a gun,
While the other takes a bullet in his back
This boy's a beggar,
That girl sells her soul
They both work the same street,
The same hell hole
Let every man help his brother
Some are born addicted and some are just thrown away
Some have daddies who make them play games they don't want to play
[01:43.39]But with hope and faith
We must understand
[01:51.03]All God's children need is love
[01:54.18]And us to hold their little hands
This boy is hungry, he ain't got enought to eat
That girl's cold and she ain't got no shoes on her feet
When a child's spirit's broken
And feels all hope is gone
God help them find the strength to carry on
Yea, we can understand
[03:20.07][03:06.70]Hallelujah, hallelujah
Let us all love one another
Make all our hearts bilnd to color
The End
