Children of the streets
There shall come a time
as children who live in the streets
Who know the curse of dirt and sloviness
shall walk with heads erect
Proud owners of the new world
and masters of themselves
admitting no inferiority
feeling only superiority
I say its a warning
as we flow
This a warning
Say
Warning, warning, warning, warning , warning hey
Warning, warning, warning, warning , warning I
there shall come a time
as children who live in the streets
Who know the curse of dirt and sloviness
shall walk with heads erect
Proud owners of the new world
and masters of themselves
admitting no inferiority
feeling only superiority
There shall come a time, there shall come a time, there shall come a time
Me say a this warning
Jah know
I a say this warning ladoig
Let me tell ya just warning
This a world wide warning
This one for the children
The children of the world
All the street children of the world
Caught up in metropolitan cities
Victim of a dangerous system
The unwanted,
The motherless,
The fatherless,
This one goes out to the youths caught up in child slave labour
