Sister Theresa, leading the orphans
On a cold winter's day
Up on the rooftop Danny would watch them
Poor little soft on their way
Danny was tough, king of the jungle
A fool in the eyes of the most
He never tasted love or affection
No one ever had time
Every night Danny had a dream
He saw the orphans chasing him over mountains of icecream
Hear the churchbells ringing
Sister Theresa's singing
All the children singing
Ave Maria
Then one night, down in the corner
Danny robbed a store
Ran with the money
And put it under the orphanages floor
Father Sam Clamcy stands in the hallway, waiting for Danny to come
Fires are shot only after telling him not to come
Danny laid dying in the cold and lonely place
And Clamcy couldn't understand the smile on Danny's face
Hear the churchbells ringing
Sister Theresa's singing
All the children singing
Ave Maria
