My little sparrow there is hope for you

Your life has just begun

And I could not do what I wanted to

But I fear my time is almost done

But through your actions truth will carry on

Go forth with joy in your heart

And even though I will be gone

You've got to play your part

Listen to me now...

Chorus

4thFret

You will overcome, I promise you

5thFret

And be whatever it is that you want to be

There is hope for you

Oh there's hope for you

But it's much too late for me

Wayward weeping voices that you will hear

Each with their own story to tell

And you have the choice to bend your ear

And treat your fellow humans well

So goodbye my little sparrow

It's time that I must go

To keep on the straight and narrow

There's something you must know

Listen to me now...

Chorus
