Carlo and Carmen Vidal just had a child, a lovely girl with a crooked smile.
Now they got a flip, cause the Bronx ain't fit for a kid to grow up in.
Let's find a place, they say, somewhere far away, with no blacks, no Jews, and no gays.
But for the grace of God, there [Fm] go I, [B] I, I.
[G] Yeah, but for [E] the grace of God, there [D#] go I, [G] I, [B] I, I, I, I, I, [F#m] I, I, I, I, [G] [F#m]

And year [C#] after year, the kid [B] has to hear [A] the Jews and don't [F#m] send the dears.
And when she's ten [C#m] years old, she thinks that rock [Bm] and roll, [Am] but they bang it from [F#m] the home.

She turns [C#m] out to be a [Bm] natural three, [A] gaining weight and losing [F#] sleep.
