[Intro]
I'd like to do a song about fate called "There But for Fortune"
A song written for me by Miss Joan Baez

[Verse 1]
Show me a prison, show me a jail
Show me a prison man whose face is growing pale
And I'll show you a young man with many reasons why
And there but for fortune may go you or I

[Verse 2]
Show me an alley, show me a train
Show me a hobo who sleeps out in the rain
And I'll show you a young man with many reasons why
And there but for fortune may go you or I

[Verse 3]
Show me the whiskey stains on the floor
Show me a drunken man as he stumbles out the door
And I'll show you a young man with many reasons why
And there but for fortune may go you or I

[Verse 4]
Show me the country where the bombs had to fall
Show me the ruins of the buildings once so tall
And I'll show you a young land with so many reasons why
And there but for fortune may go you or I, or I
