I've been a rescuer
All of my life
Give me the underdog
With an armload of strife
I take to the lost causes
And things unattended
I have a longing to help
When the world seems ended
Strays and mongrels
Hold kinship with me
Those who hide in the shadows
The ones unseen
Wanderers and lost souls
With holes for hearts
The ones who are lost
Right from the start
I AM YOU

I've been a rescuer
All of my life
Give me the underdog
With an armload of strife
I take to the lost causes
And things unattended
I have a longing to help
When the world seems ended
Strays and mongrels
Hold kinship with me
Those who hide in the shadows
The ones unseen
Wanderers and lost souls
With holes for hearts
The ones who are lost
Right from the start
I AM YOU
