    I'm not sure if you are looking for Elton John's Cry to Heaven (1986) or Sade's "Pearls". Here, anyway is Sade's Pearls. I sure hope this is it.

    There is a woman in Somalia
    Scraping for pearls on the roadside
    There's a force stronger than nature
    Keeps her will alive
    This is how she's dying
    She's dying to survive
    Don't know what she's made of
    I would like to be that brave

    She cries to the heaven above
    There is a stone in my heart
    She lives a life she didn't choose
    And it hurts like brand-new shoes

    Hurts like brand-new shoes

    There is a woman in Somalia
    The sun gives her no mercy
    The same sky we lay under
    Burns her to the bone
    Long as afternoon shadows
    It's gonna take her to get home
    Each grain carefully wrapped up
    Pearls for her little girl

    Hallelujah
    Hallelujah

    She cries to the heaven above
    There is a stone in my heart
    She lives in a world she didn't choose
    And it hurts like brand-new shoes
    Hurts like brand-new shoes
