I just saw somebody down in Taylor Square, Looking awful, feeling bad in Taylor Square. And you know that I, I just walked on by, I did not even try, I said, there but for the grace of God go I. (Chorus) Down in Taylor Square, Down in Taylor Square. I just saw some mother's son in Taylor Square, Too drunk to walk or run in Taylor Square. And you know that I, I just walked on by, I did not even try. I said, there but for the grace of God go I. Then somebody's brother put the bite on me, For the price of a bottle of fortified wine, Would I hold the sympathy. He looked at me as I walked y, Summed me up, knew my size. He said, there but for the grace of God go I.
