about

Still many people around the world live on less than a dollar a day.

The problems some people face like, lack of drinking water, drought, no land to grow food can and should be solved. These are basic things that are needed for a decent life and the causes are often because of human behaviour.

Now is the time that everybody should have these essentials for a decent life.

lyrics

A Dollar A Day by S Laffy & J Flinter

Chorus
We’ve got to find, a better way
Because they’re living their lives, on a dollar a day

Verse
Is it any wonder, that there is war
When it’s water hmm, they’re fighting for
Is it really any wonder, they want to get away
When there’s hunger around, who wants to stay

Repeat Chorus

Verse
In a little old shack, in a dirty old town
There’s a lonely old man, no one around
There’s a mother with a baby, with her head hung down
Sleeping in a cardboard box, on the ground

Bridge
We are all a family, living in the world today
All for one and one for all here the people say, “find a better way”
Learn to give to share to live
Because they’re living their lives, on a dollar a day

Ad Lib vocal
We got to find, they’re living their lives
They’re living their lives, we’ve got to find, a better way

Ad Solos

Ad Lib vocals
We’ve got to find, (BVs We’ve got to find)
Because they’re living their lives (BVs We’ve got to find)
We’ve got to find, (BVs We’ve got to find)
A better way.
