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 hed been there for a whole night or more He 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 gone
A 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 hed come And a fistful of money Showed the coins that hed bummed
He 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
it Does 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 thats gone lame To lie in the gutter And die with no name
He 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
