Your rating:


(S. Silverstein)



See that wino in the gutter

I've been him

See that wino in the gutter

Well I've been him

See that wino in the gutter

Watch him stumble hear him stutter

As he cries out for his mother

Well I've been him



See that soldier with his gun

Well I've been him, I've been him

See that soldier with his gun

Well I've been him, I've been him

See that soldier raise his gun

Watch him kill and see him run

And then forget the things he's done

Well I've been him



Hey

I've been him, I've been him

I've been him, and I've been you

Tell me ain't you been there too



See that brave man standing trial

Well I've been him, I've been him

See that coward run and hide

Well I've been him, I've been him

See that finger-pointing preacher

See that never learning teacher

Every crawling, crying creature

Well I've been him



I've been him, I've been him

I've been him, and I've been you

Tell me ain't you been there too



See that little baby cry

Well I've been him

See that old man about to die

Well I'll be him, someday I'll be him

When I'm tall enough to stand

So's I can reach and touch God's hand

Then I believe I'll understand

And I'll be him



And when I'm tall enough to stand

So's I can reach and touch God's hand

Then I believe I'll understand

And I'll be him



I've been him

I've been him.......
