Help me build a ladder
To climb out of this hole
Help me make up for the time
To fade in hard lost hope
Help me build a staircase
Build it out of stone
Help me walk on out of here
Make my way back home
Help me brother
Help me sister
Help me Lord
‘Cause no one gets out of here alone
Help me pack my suitcase
I’m heading for the train
Help me board the engine’s roaring
And the sky’s growing heavy with rain
Help me brother
Help me sister
Help me Lord
‘Cause no one gets out of here alone
No Hollywood starlet
No monarch on is flown
President no rich man son
No one gets out of here alone
Help me build a ladder
To climb out of this hole
Help me make up for the time
The greed and then this stow
Help me brother
Help me sister
Help me Lord
‘Cause no one gets fired or feels alone
