Early 80s hit ...be standin' there yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah I will

[tarapada]

Hi, have been looking for this song for years. It was a hit in the early to mid 80s, fast-paced song and lyrics something like "wonder who your daddy is" and "you could be the lover, you could be the fool".

The lead-up to the chorus says something like "and when it all gets over, who'll be stnading there? yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah I will, ooh yeah I will"

song's been in my head but I've never found out the title or artist... seems like a one-hit wonder perhaps?

thanks in advance

"You can be a warrior,
Or you can be a slave.
People they will carry you,
To the mountains and the grave.

But don't forget who loves you,
And don't forget who turned you around,
'Cause when it all is over,
Who'll be standing there?
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah,
I will.
Ooh yeah, I will.

You can be a senator,
Or you can be a fool.
Doesn't matter who your daddy is,
Or if you went to school, yeah yeah.

But don't forget who needs you,
And keeps their arms open wide,
'Cause if this all should end now,
Who'll be by your side?
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah,
I will.
Ooh yeah, I will.

You can pack up your bags with all the dreams in the world,
And carry them a long way from home.
You can take yourself to the ends of the earth,
But you will never, never, never be alone."
