What has happened to our town
Theres people sleeping on the ground
Cold and lost, they fear the night
Left alone, theyll lose the fight
Hadnt we better reach for more than just a dime
Shouldnt we try to talk that boy out of his crime
Havent you had it knowing nothings getting solved
Maybe wed better, better get involved
Chorus:
We could stop the hurtin for awhile
We could stop the hurtin for awhile
If we found a way to reconcile
We could stop the hurtin
Families livin in their cars and kids run numbers out of bars
Knowing pride wont pay the bills, men work jobs beneath their skills
Hadnt we better hand out more than just a line
Shouldnt we try to find solutions with our minds
Havent you had it knowing nothings getting solved
Maybe wed better, better get involved
Chorus
