Lookin? out my hotel window 44 floors above the ground
A
Get me out of this tower of Babel

Did we all go off and leave you in our little old home town
D A
Lord above how it must hurt you for your children to deserted you

Like a little town in Kansas how they Arkansas cotton field

The only place I?ve seen you mention is the sign above the mission

Jesus save but no one listen all they want is a good hot meal

And this great big Godless city where they struggle to survive
