Robert Randolph & The Family Band - Problems lyrics

When I was a little boy

My mama told me

To play with toys

Now that I am a man

I’ve grown and learned

To understand

She always kept telling me

Son, would you please

stay out of the streets

Because I don’t want you do go astray

These are the problems of the world today

With the world messed up

Everything is tied up

People living scared

But there’s no need to have fear

We’ve got something

that the enemy’s don’t

We’ve got each other

Stay close to your loved ones

Problems of the world today

Don’t let our children go astray

Problems of the world today

Don’t let our children go astray

Just keep the faith in God

He won’t make it hard
