High Price of Love

Oh, yeah Let me tell you people, Let me tell you bout' the high price of love; People are in the streets at night; Looking for prostitutes, while innocent teens say "don't shoot" Leaving their loved ones in spite, what's the use? of what they shouldn't do wanting someone to hold'em tight; And they can't afford the price of milk; and they can't afford gas prices; Living in an age of industrial wars; heaven knows where the children are; man gone to the moon, while China's running out of room; It's out of sight, this ain't right It's the high price The high price of love ooh, ooh, oh yeah Little babies crying Mothers worrying bout' their fathers; Where and when will the violents end? NO one to call a friend; Can't sleep at night; For holding my pillow tight; I'm scare Lord, living in a age of industrial wars; heaven knows where the children are; Cost of living so high, can't even afford to die; It's out of sight, this ain't right It's the high price The high price of love ooh, ooh, oh yeah The high price of love 06/21/74 From the anthology "The World Will End Tomorrow" as well as demo/cassette & Single from American Gramaphone /Sound Recorders/ BlackAmoor Records written words by James Edward Lee 1974, 2018© Arranged music by Alton Adkins 1974, 2018© sung by Alton Adkins
