Youre tired and youre poor, you long to be free But in this God-forsaken land you find no home, no family On the many roads that you wandered since the day of your birth Youve become one of the Last, Lonely, and Wretched.
Your hair is matted, your face and hands are dirty And the years that youve toiled must number somewhere near thirty The deepening of a sadness broke finally into madness You are truly one of the Last, Lonely, and Wretched.
Your eyes are wild and frightening, at the same time they are blessed And I wonder if God died, turned his back, or only just rested As you walked out on the seventh day, through the big gates and on your way To become one of the Last, Lonely, and Wretched.
For once you were a child, your cheeks were red, you were well fed, You laughed and played till you got teary, ran to your mother when you were weary But somehow you were forsaken, alone Ill not bear the blame And somewhere all was taken, your mind, your body, your name Forgive us our unkindness, our desertion, and our blindness To you, the Last, Lonely, and Wretched Forgive us, all the Last, Lonely, and Wretched.
Joan Baez Copyright 1970 by Chandos Music ASCAP 3:42
