Yesterday some guy in Atlanta,

Climbed one of those huge construction cranes.

He said he had a gun and in the noonday sun,
Bm C
He kept the whole world at bay.

And the folks on the ground tried to talk him down all day
D Bm C
But in the soft Georgia summer twilight, he jumped anyway.
G Bm C
- Some men fall, some fly.

There ain't no scheme at all.

And so did John Lee Hooker,

But they kept right on walkin,

Like there was something that they knew.

A baby boy was born
D Bm C
To a world that can be as cold and mean as it can be safe and warm.

And hopefully, his family will clothe him and feed him,

And then give him every hope and prayer,

Cause little brother, you're gonna need 'em.
