Randy Newman - ***** Man Lyrics
Old lady lost in the cityIn the middle of a cold, cold nightIt was fourteen below and the wind start to blowThere wasnt a boy scout in sightPull down the shades cause hes cominTurn out the lights cause hes hereRunnin hard down the streetThrough the snow and the sleetOn the coldest night of the yearChorusBeware, beware, beware of the ***** manOld lady head up toward broad streetShufflin uptown against the windShe had started to cry-wiped a tear from her eyeAnd looked back to see where she had beenOld lady stand on the cornerWith a purse in her handShe does not know but in a minute or soShe will be robbed by a ***** manChorusOld lady lean against a lamppostStarin down at the ground on which she standShe look up and screamFor the lamplights beamThere stood the famous ***** manHe say, they found out about my sisterAnd kicked me out of the navy,They would have strung me up if they could.I tried to explain that we were both of us lazyAnd were doing the best we could.He faked to the left and he faked to the rightAnd he snatched the purse fromere handSomeone stop me, he cried,As he faded from sight,Wont nobody help a ***** man?Wont nobody help a ***** man?Chorus
