he sits on a corner with a bottle in his hand
pulling his beard barefoot cross the land
eyes sunk deep wrinkled up face always packs a smile and a limp at a slow pace
greets people with a could you spare a little?
or he drops his hat and sings the blues the change falls sometimes
his hair and his beard grow longer and longer
holding his belly his hunger pains grow stonger.
now to his favorite spot where the rich folk linger
got some change? get a job through up his middle finger
robot black suit breifcase raised brow
a million sheep walk by lost soul same style
oh the sweet sound is droppin in his hat
he didnt need a map to know where hes at hes got wisdom
and calloses on his feet to show for it
change falls the magic harmonica paid for it
i always wondered why he never tried to sell the art he made of trash
how could he be so talented yet have no cash
but he liked the street life and he saw a lot and lived and learned
people saw him out there and felt sorry for him he just smiled
i wondered how he could be so poor but so happy
walkin around hungry with his hair all nappy
just then, i seen him bum a gang of change from 2 old ladies
turned around the corner and drove off in his mercedes
