Lyrics
Third World Country
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Looking through my hotel window
in a third world country.
Yes I'm looking through my hotel window
in a third world country.
The sun is shining the skies are blue
and there's a cool breeze passing through.
The plants are green it's a beautiful scene
seems like a nice place for human beings.
But there's people on the streets, no shoes on their feet
they gotta hustle to get a little food to eat.
I know that things shouldn't be this way
but what can I do, what can I say?
There are oh so many problems
and I wish that I could solve them.
But even with inspiration,
right direction and good intention.
No man is an island so won't somebody give a hand
for the people in the third world.
There's people on the streets, no shoes on their feet
they gotta hustle to get a little food to eat.
I know that things shouldn't be this way
but what can I do what can I say?
