Those Less Fortunate Than I Lyrics - Singles - Darryl Worley

I don't have a lot, but I'm proud of what I've got 

I can't complain 

'Cause I see people hangin' 'round, on the city streets downtown 

Living on pocket change 

There're times I've been confused, felt that I was born to lose 

Oh but I survived 

Unlike the one's who pray and feel more than blessed each day 

To just be still alive 

Is there something we can do 

Seems the odds against survival are a million to one 

The only hope they have will die 

In the hearts of you and I if nothing's ever done 

I can't save them by myself 

Oh but God forbid that I just turn my head 

And walk on by 

Don't let me be a stranger to those less fortunate than I 

Seems that old golden rule, that I learned back in school 

Has lost its shine 

It's a crying shame, and I wonder could the blame 

Be yours and mine 

Discipline was tough, and that old principal was rough 

But the times were good 

'Cause no one ever found one single child shot down 

In the neighborhood 

Is there something we can do 

Seems the odds against survival are a million to one 

'Cause every day that passes by 

Another street gang victim dies 

And still there's nothing done 

I can't save them by myself 

Oh, but God forbid that I just run away somewhere and hide 

From the fear and the danger of those less fortunate than I 

Lord, don't let me be a stranger to those less fortunate than I
