Lyrics Children in the Streets - Lucky Dube

Sitting by the door one morning
Looking at the children going to school man
Then I thought about the ones in the streets
Moving up and down, no where to go
No education no future

Then I thought about their parents man
Why do they suffer so much
If they have parents why
If you really don't want no children
Why do you have them
If you really don't want no children man
Why why

We can fight and overcome
We can stop children from the streets
We can fight and overcome
We can stop children from the streets
We can fight and overcome
We can stop children from the streets

It's a cold winter man
Moving back cooler down khilo street man
His father is relaxing in the best bar in town
Asking them to fill his glass man
His mother is kissing on another man

If you really don't want no children
Why do you have them
If you can't care for them why...

We can fight and overcome
We can stop children from the streets
We can fight and overcome
We can stop children from the streets
We can fight and overcome
We can stop children from the streets
