Third World Woman Lyrics - Somewhere Down The Road - Amy Grant

What if I were that mother staring from my TV 

What if that were my brown-eyed baby 

Hungry as she could be 

What if that were my family 

What if that was my world 

Waiting on water waiting on a vaccine 

Waiting on someone to bring me a bag of beans 

Lord have mercy on me 

Lord have mercy on me 

Lord have mercy on me 

Lord have mercy on me 

What of I was that mother and I was waiting on me 

The big success so well dressed on the other side of the sea 

Living with my distractions 

Life's been good to me 

Maybe she's praying 

Praying for a miracle 

Maybe the answer is me 

Lord have mercy on me 

Lord have mercy on me 

Lord have mercy on me 

Lord have mercy on me 

Lord have mercy on me 

Lord have mercy on me 

Lord have mercy on me 

Lord have mercy on me 

I was born in Georgia where I could do as I pleased 

And I can get my hands on just about anything I might need 

Who's that third world woman 

Maybe she could be 

Could be mother, could be daughter 

Could be sister to me 

Lord have mercy on me 

Lord have mercy on me 

Lord have mercy on me 

Lord have mercy on me
