There But For Fortune

Show me the prison
Show me the jail
Show me the prisoner whose life has gone straight

And I'll show you, young men
With so many reasons why
There but for fortune
Go you or I, hmm

Show me the alley
Show me the train
Show me the whole world
Who sleeps out in the rain

And I'll show you, young men
With so many reasons why
There but for fortune
Go you or I, hmm

Show me the country
Where the bombs had to fall
Show me the ruins of the buildings once so tall

And I'll show you, young men
With so many reasons why
There but for fortune
Go you and I

You and I
