Lyrics

I was walkin' the other day with my head down
When I met a man who had his hand out
So I gave him, gave him a dollar
But as I walked away I heard him call out

"Tell me brother, can you see the sun
From where you're standin' now?
I've been up and I've been down
But I've never been to this part of town."

So I started thinkin' 'bout, this world we live in
And about how far I've got my hand in
Sometimes it seems that all we have, we have taken
But maybe next time, won't be the forsaken

Tell me brother, can you see the sun
From where you're standin' now?
I've been up and I've been down
But I've never been to this part of town

So I went to see my girl, told her about my day
She said, "life can be that way
But don't give up, don't give up, no
'Cause where there is love, there is hope."

Tell me brother, can you see the sun
From where you're standin' now?
I've been up and I've been down
But I've never been here before

Tell me brother, can you see the sun
From where you're standin' now?
I've been up and I've been down
But I've never been to this part of town
