Bibbeck

On the Other Side

Another young child born

On the wrong side of the street

In the wrong side of town

With no shoes for her feet.

Brought up in a poor family home

Where draughts crept through the door

Mother and Father died

No-one to look after her anymore.

Crept through the streets

Looking for food to eat

Looking for another home

Wanting someone to love her.

No-one wanted to love her

No-one wanted to care

Just passed by on the other side

As if the girl wasn\'t there.

She walked in the gutter

She slept on doorsteps

Up until she died

But still no-one cared

Passed by on the other side....
