There But for Fortune lyrics

[Verse 1: Jim & Jean Glover]
Show me a prison, show me a jail
Show me a prison man whose face is growin' pale
And I'll show you a young man with many reasons why
And there but for fortune may go you or I

[Verse 2: Jim & Jean Glover]
Show me an alley, show me a train
Show me a hobo who sleeps out in the rain
And I'll show you a young man with many reasons why
And there but for fortune may go you or I

[Verse 3: Jim & Jean Glover]
Show me the whiskey that stains on the floor
Show me a drunken man as he stumbles out the door
And I'll show you a young man with many reasons why
And there but for fortune may go you or I

[Verse 4: Jim & Jean Glover]
Show me the country where bombs had to fall
Show me the ruins of the buildings once so tall
And I'll show you a young land with so many reasons why
And there but for fortune may go you or I, or I
