trains, dey keep o´ rollin´
hobo´s life´s ´em steam
lonely nights are cold and
no one else to lean
people keep on moanin´
nothing´s there to strive
they got more than others
tell me, what´s the better life?
search hell for a dollar!
spent it for booze!
who can have a better life
than a hobo, got the blues?
he found it in the garbage
rotten peace of wood
thrown away by rich kids
of dat strange neighborhood
look into the mirror
golden necklace
earrings, silver wristwatch
but where is your face
| Refrain |
sell ya rings and brooches
let your mind be fair
explode into a new life
get back to what u were
| Refrain |
