"Resurrection Shuffle" lyrics - GAMMA

Took a walk the other day,
My little girl's hand in mine.
Ended up on the other side of town,
In a world of sad design.

A boy in a box living over there,
His sister sleeping by his side.
Mamma scrubbing floors all night
Trying to keep food on the line...

Daddy can we help them?
Daddy can we help them?
Daddy can we help them make it right?
Daddy can we love them?
Daddy can we take them home tonight?

A woman over there in a limousine,
Drinking champagne and wine.
Over in the corner in an alley way,
A child - hurt. Hungry and crying.

A man sits numb as he begs for a penny
To help him get through the night.
Oh dear Lord! There's so many,
Please let us see the light.

Daddy can we help them?
Daddy can we help them?
Daddy can we help them make it right?
Daddy can we love them?
Daddy can we love them?
Daddy can we take them home tonight?

A man and a woman with a baby in their arms
And the fire of love in their eyes.
But the fire won't burn, won't keep them warm.
Oh, we've got to realize!

It's a cold, cold place in the heart of the city,
When you're down and out.
We all need love, don't need pity -
Hope is what it's all about.

Daddy can we help them?
Daddy can we help them?
Daddy can we help them make it right?
Daddy can we love them?
Daddy can we love them?
Daddy can we take them home tonight?
