Streets Of Your Town

Have you seen the old men that lean on the walls
Of salvation halls in the streets of your town?
You can't have missed the vagrant
He is the rubble, he is the trouble that you wanna remove
Oh, in the parks about sundown
He makes his bed, his shoes are a pillow for his head
Have you seen the young men that look so old?
They'd rather have the cold dark lonely road

Have you ever wondered why do they go leaving the TV and the automo
You can see them hailing trucks down the open road
You wave your thumb and you hop on board
You ain't got no keeper, you don't need a friend
I betcha wish you had the same, yeah
I betcha wish you had the same

Have you seen the old men we lean on the walls (have you seen)
Of salvation halls in the streets of your town? (The old men in town?)
We're just a little shady, we get a little lazy (have you seen)
Are you are the crazy in the streets of your town (the old men in town?)

Oh, in the parks about sundown we lay our head
Sour shoes are our pillow, the grass our bed, don't need no keeper
Don't need no friend, I betcha wish you had the same
Yeah, I betcha wish you had the same
I betcha wish you were the same
