There is a woman in Somalia
Scraping for pearls by the roadside
There is a force stronger than nature
Keeps her will alive
That is how she lives her life
She is dying to survive
I don't know what she's made of
I would like to be that brave
CHORUS
She cries to the heavens above
There is a stone in my heart
She lives a life she didn't choose
And it hurts like brand new shoes
Yes, it hurts like brand new shoes
And it hurts like brand new shoes
There is a woman in Rwanda
The sun shows her no mercy
The same sky we lay under
Burns her to the bone
Long as afternoon shadows
It's gonna take her to get home
Each grain carefully wrapped up
Pearls for her little girl
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
She cries to the heaven above
There is a stone in my heart
She lives a life she didn't choose
And it hurts like brand new shoes
Yes it hurts like brand new shoes
And it hurts like brand new shoes
There is a woman in Somalia
There is a woman in Rwanda
There is a woman in Sudan
There is a woman in the Congo
And she hurts like
(And she hurts like)
(And she hurts like) brand new shoes
