My grandfather died A Bowery (bum?) My grandfather died Son of an Irishman On the Bowery Oh on the Bowery My father tried To find his bones And to his trials I added my own My grandfather left My father twice Second time was on his wife's advice Straight back to the Bowery Straight back to the Bowery Well I'm new here. Where can a fella eat? I'm new here. Where can a fella sleep? I'm new here, and I've got a pit in my gut On the Bowery Oh on the Bowery And when he came up from the river of methadone He took his last breath on the Bowery He took his last breath on the Bowery
