Artist/Band: Arlo Guthrie
Lyrics for Song: Cooper's Lament
Lyrics for Album: Last Of The Brooklyn Cowboys [2005]



Hey brothers, hear me call

It ain't that I had to fall

Wasn't no one's fault last night

That I looked up and felt the light



Here's hoping you'll understand, I want to feel like a natural man

Get up early in the morning to do what I can

You can't help no one with money

If you can't with your hands



And you got to be there brothers, yes you do

If the world is turning under you

Ain't no good to sit around bring it up or down

You got to be there brothers, yes you do



Hey brothers, now and then

There's something oughta move you more than a pen

You don't need no school or knowledge you've got something else to lend

All the people in the world can make it better again



And it ain't easy, yes I know

It's a hard rugged in the road

Don't be swindled, don't be fooled

Just be honest and stay cool



'Cause you got to be there brothers, yes you do

If the world is turning under you

Ain't no good to sit around bring it up or down

You got to be there brothers, yes you do
