Rod Stewart - Only A Hobo Lyrics
(bob dylan)As I was out walking on the corner one dayI spied an old hobo, in the doorway he layHis face was all covered in the cold sidewalk floorI guess hed been there for a whole night or moreHe was only a hobo, but one more is goneLeaving nobody to carry it onLeaving nobody to sing his sad songOnly a hobo, but one more is goneA blanket of newspaper covered his headThe step was his pillowThe street was his bedOne look at his faceShowed the hard road hed comeAnd a fistful of moneyShowed the coins that hed bummedHe was only a hobo, but one more is goneLeavin nobody to sing his sad songLeavin nobody to carry it onOnly a hobo, but one more is goneDoes it take much of a manTo see a whole life go downTo look on the worldFrom a hole in the groundToo late for your futureLike a horse thats gone lameTo lie in the gutterAnd die with no nameHe was only a hobo, but one more is goneLeavin nobody to sing his sad songLeavin nobody to carry it onOnly a hobo, but one more is gone
