Poorman

Oh Mr. Poorman
He lives on my street
But has no number (can't look him in the eye)

Oh Mr. Poorman
Please tell me why
Your roof is the sky? (but don't look me in the eye)

With holes in your shoes
And matted hair
Did you lose a bet
Oh it just aint fair

I'd like to know your story
To ease my conscience (don't look me in the eye)

But those filthy hands and clothes
Keep at a distance
So I look up in the sky

Oh Mr. Poorman
He lives on my street
But has no number (can't look him in the eye)

Oh Mr. Poorman
Please tell me why
Your roof is the sky? (but don't look me in the eye)

I just walk on by
