Show me the prison, show me the jail Show me the prisoner whose face is growin' pale And I'll show you a young man with so many reasons why There but for fortune, go you or go I You and I. Show me the alley, show me the train Show me the hobo who sleeps out in the rain And I'll show you a young man with many reasons why There but for fortune, go you or go I You and I. Show me the famine, show me the frail Eyes with no future, that show how we fail And I'll show you the children with so many reasons why There but for fortune, go you or go I You and I. Show me the country where bombs had to fall Show me the ruins of buildings once so tall And I'll show you a young land with many reasons why There but for fortune, go you or go I You and I. You and I. There but for fortune, go you or go I You and I.
