Lyrics

Black boy in Chicago, playin' in the street
Not enough to wear, not near enough to eat
But don't you know he saw it, on a July afternoon
Saw a man named Armstrong walk upon the moon
Young girl in Calcutta, barely eight years old
Flies round the market-place, see she don't get old
Don't you know she heard it, on a July afternoon
Heard a man named Armstrong walk upon the moon
Heard a man named Armstrong walk upon the moon
Rivers gettin' dirty, wind is gettin' bad
War and hate is killin' off the only earth we have
But the world all stopped to watch, on a July afternoon
Watched a man named Armstrong walk upon the moon
Watched a man named Armstrong walk upon the moon
And I wonder if a long time ago, somewhere in the universe
They watched a man named Adam walk upon the earth
