I walked all day tryin to find me work, |
|
I must have knocked on one hundred doors. |
|
Would have swallowed my pride for some money, |
|
And be satisfied sweepin' the floors. |
|
Mr. Government-man. |
|
Mr. Silver-and-gold. |
|
Mr. Bustin'-my-ass. |
|
Mr. All-you-can-hold. |
|
I spent last night a sleep on a park bench,'til a cop came and moved me along. |
|
Told him I wasn't botherin' nobody, |
|
Yes he told me to go. |
|
Everywhere, |
|
I get the same kind of answer, |
|
Not now or maybe then. |
|
Well me time is runnin' out on me people, yes me people. |
|
If you're down and without a friend. |
|
Yeah, yeah. |
