Down on the corner of Maple and Vine
Billy stood silent holding his sign
begging for answers working for food
his life was empty needing good news
then as I watched him the thought came to me
what kind of world would this world be yeah

Chorus

What kind of world would it be
if we lived in life the things we say we believe
things like serving our brother
loving one another
what kind of world
tell me what kind of world would it be

I read the headlines in the paper today
people were dying in the usual ways
seemed that the homeless were turning to crime
I’d give assistance but who has the time
then as I wondered the thought came to me
what kind of world would this world be yeah

Chorus
