1
Arthur was born just a plain simple man
2
In a plain simple working class position
3
Though the world was hard and it's ways were set
4
He was young and he had so much ambition
5
All the way he was overtaken
6
By the people who make the big decisions
7
But he tried and he tried for a better life
8
And a way to improve his own condition
9
If only life were easy it would be such fun
10
Things would be more equal and be plenty for everyone
11
Arthur the world's gone and passed you by
12
Don't you know it, don't you know it
13
You can cry, cry all night but it won't make it right
14
Don't you know it, don't you know it
15
Arthur we know and we sympathize
16
Don't you know it, don't you know it
17
Arthur we like you and want to help you
18
Somebody loves you don't you know it
19
How is your life and your Shangri-La
20
And your long lost land of Hallelujah
21
And your hope and glory has passed you by
22
Can't you see what the world is doing to ya
23
And now we see your children
24
Sailing off in the setting sun
25
To a new horizon
26
Where there's plenty for everyone
27
Arthur, could be that the world was wrong
28
Don't you know it, don't you know it
29
Arthur, could be you were right all along
30
Don't you know it, I hope you know it
31
Now we know and we sympathize
32
We'd like to help you and understand you
33
Don't you know it, don't you know it
34
Somebody loves you, don't you know it
35
Don't you know it, don't you know it
36
Arthur the world's gone and passed you by
37
Don't you know it, don't you know it
38
You can cry, cry all night
39
But it won't make it right
40
Don't you know it, don't you know it
41
(Don't you know it, don't you know it)
42
Arthur we read you and understand you
43
Arthur we like you and want to help you
44
Oh, we love you and want to help you
45
Oh, we love you and want to help you
46
Oh, we love you and want to help you
47
Somebody loves you, don't you know it
48
Oh, we love you and want to help you
49
Oh, we love you and want to help you
50
Oh, we love you and want to help you
51
Somebody loves you, don't you know it
52
Oh, we love you and want to help you
53
Oh, we love you and want to help you
54
Oh, we love you and want to help you
55
Somebody loves you, don't you know it
56
Oh, we love you and want to help you
57
Oh, we love you and want to help you
58
Oh, we love you and want to help you
59
Somebody loves you, don't you know it
60
Oh, we love you and want to help you
61
Oh, we love you and want to help you
