And the child is begging for money
Tell me why, tell me why

From the little blind woman
With the kid on the corner
And the people full over, doinand' crack

With no one around
And i wonder whatand's wrong
Then i hear this loud piercing siren

And everybody climbed right on top screaming
What a wonderful country
