lyrics

Somewhere in Camden Town
A son clutches his mother as they push through the crowd
And they scower the streets for something to eat
Every night about now while the suns going
Somewhere in Camden Town

Somewhere in Harlem’s street
A man’s making excuses to the cop on the beat
And the system ain’t fair, but he don’t seem to care
And try from he may from his birth he was beat
Somewhere in Harlem’s street

Somewhere in Heavens throne
Sit the father, the son, and the holy ghost
And they’re doing their best trying to clean up our mess
Shaking their heads and feeling alone
Somewhere in heavens throne

Somewhere inside my soul
There’s a devil and an angel fighting for control
And that devil is sin and he usually wins
And the angel just watches at it all unfolds
Somewhere inside my soul

Somewhere in your hometown
There is hunger and hatred for miles around
And if the world could wake up, and try and fix it with love
I think God would smile as he’s looking down
Somewhere in your hometown

Somewhere in Camden Town
A son clutches his mother as they push through the crowd
And they’re going to sleep with nothing to eat
Every night about now while the world’s turning round
Somewhere in Camden Town
Somewhere in Camden Town
