Hobo

He's a lonesome hobo, got nowhere to go He's a lonesome hobo, he ain't got no home He can't find his babe, I guess he oughta roam Black skin, dirty hair, got no money at all Just a few coins hidden in a crack in the wall Everybody's mocks him, makes him crawl He's a lonesome hobo, got nowhere to go He's a lonesome hobo, he ain't got no home He can't find his babe, I guess he oughta roam His story long, long and sad, he ran away His shack's been burnt, turned to dust in a day Paid war's toll, I guess he oughta pray He's a lonesome hobo, got nowhere to go He's a lonesome hobo, he ain't got no home He can't find his babe, I guess he oughta roam Haunted by the past, got a dream in mind Play and don't let 'em be blind He knows he's just barely getting by Yet he got this dream in mind All are equal the same way, yet he knows it's hard to explain He's a lonesome hobo yet he's free to roam He's a lonesome hobo, the world his home He'll find his babe, I guess he oughta roll
