Children like to dance, children like to sing
Children find a way to play with anything
A little piece of wood, tiny bit of string
Tied together, it's a wonderful thing
Children who don't eat can't stay on their feet
If the cupboard is bare, they only sit and stare
Isn't it funny how we're all the same?
Black and white and yellow kids, love a good game
Isn't it sad how some can't play?
'Cause they waited too long for a rainy day
We hate the winter and cry about the snow
But come the month of May our crops start to grow
We cut down the wheat and turn it into bread
Put it on the table 'til everyone's fed
Set a place at the table for the hungry of the world
A place in your heart for every boy and girl
Isn't it funny how we're all the same?
Black and white and yellow kids, love a good game
Isn't it sad how some can't play?
'Cause they waited too long for a rainy day
Rain, rain today, pour out of the heavens so all the kids can play
Some are hungry, others in pain
They've got no bread 'cause they've got no rain
Isn't it funny how we're all the same?
Black and white and yellow kids, love a good game
Isn't it sad how some can't play?
'Cause they waited too long for a rainy day |
