Lyrics There But For The Grace Of God Go I - Kid Creole And The Coconuts

A pious man and his girl
They had a child
Rise in the bronx
In a place so wild
Year after year
The girl has to hear
The do's and the dont's and the did's
And when she star to grows
She found herself on her own
But papi bans at home
There but for the grace of god then go I
I I
But for the grace of then go I I I I
And when she's sixteen
She pack his things and she leaves
With a man who let her dream
They try to find a place to stay
Somewhere far away
When they do and play
And sing as they're mad
There but for the grace of god then go I
I I
But for the grace of then go I I I I
