Is there any hope for them?
Is there any hope for us?
A poor man's life, as I see it,
Is living 'cause he must
What are the chances of him,
Making it to the top?
When the forces are working hard
To see to it he drops
Young men and women,
Trying hard, can't get a job
Little children on the street,
They all should be in school
Still others in the fields
Working day and night
While others walk around,
It's a terrible sight
Is there any hope for them?
Is there any hope for us?
A poor man's life, as I see it,
Is living till he's dust
What are the chances of him,
Making it to the top?
When the forces are working hard
To see to it he drops
Oh, is there any any hope for us?

When will he ever be paid
For the work he has done?
Yeah, if poverty ain't no crime,
Then stealing sure ain't none
Is there any hope for them?
Is there any hope for us?
A poor man's life, as I see it,
