Brother, Where Are You? lyrics

[Verse 1]
A young boy walked down a city street
And hope was in his eyes
As he searched the faces of the people he'd meet
For one he could recognize

[Chorus]
Brother, where are you?
They told me that you came this way
Brother, where are you?
They said you came this way

[Verse 2]
The eyes of the people who passed him by
Were cold and as hard as stone
And the small boy trembled and began to cry
Because he was all alone

[Verse 3]
Oh, there are many who say it's true
That brothers are we all
And yet it seems there are very few
Who'll answer a brother's call

[Chorus]
Brother, where are you?
They told me that you came this way
Brother, where are you?
They said you came this way
