Only A Hobo

As I was out walking on the corner one day

I spied an old hobo, in the doorway he lay

His face was all covered in the cold sidewalk floor

I guess he'd been there for a whole night or moreHe was only a hobo, but one more is gone

Leaving nobody to carry it on

Leaving nobody to sing his sad song

Only a hobo, but one more is goneA blanket of newspaper covered his head

The step was his pillow, the street was his bed

One look at his face showed the hard road he'd come

And a fistful of money showed the coins that he'd bummedHe was only a hobo, but one more is gone

Leavin' nobody to sing his sad song

Leavin' nobody to carry it on

Only a hobo, but one more is goneDoes it take much of a man to see a whole life go down

To look on the world from a hole in the ground

Too late for your future like a horse that's gone lame

To lie in the gutter and die with no nameHe was only a hobo, but one more is gone

Leavin' nobody to sing his sad song

Leavin' nobody to carry it on

Only a hobo, but one more is gone

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
