Текст песни Save the Children (Live) - Gil Scott-Heron

And if you're driving through the country on a, a lazy afternoon
Or you're watching your children playing after school
They seem to be so unaware of, I know
The things that they soon have to take care of, say
And we've got to do something, yeah, to save the children
Yeah, 'cause soon it's gonna be their turn to try and save the world
And right now they seem to play such a small part of, say, yeah
The things that they'll soon be right at the heart of, say yeah
The brilliant Ron Holloway on the tenor saxophone here
And with the piano, he's the reason I'm glad we oughta be here
That's Kevin George on the keyboard
Say, say
We've got to do something, yeah, to save the children
Say, say
Soon it's gonna be their turn, their turn to try and save the world
And if we know all we say we know about the problems, yeah
Then why can't we do something, just one thing, to try and solve them
Say, say, say
We've got to do something, yeah, to save the children
Say
And we've got to do something, yeah, to save the children
We just can't keep doing nothing
Can't keep doing nothing
Go to try, got to try and do something
Try and do something
Try and do something
Try and do one thing
Try and do one thing
Try and do something
Try and do something
Try and do something
Try and do something
Try and do something
Try and do something
Try and do one thing
Try and do something
Try and do something
Try and do something
Try and do something
Try and do something
Try and do just one thing
To save the children
Say, just one thing
To save the children
Just one thing, say, oh
About tomorrow
Just one thing
Just one thing
Just one thing
Just one thing
Just one thing
Just one thing
Just one thing
Say, to save the children
Just one thing
Save us all
Say, to save the children
Thank you very much
