about

story about a homeless man and a kid.

lyrics

That crazy man, is crossing the street.
Hay, look out Dad. Watch out for cars.
The saints
and sinners , may drive you down
to rivers.

And in the tumbled down, part of town
he sleeps in,boxes,blue.
The cops that come around, only frown.


A bright sunny day , the kids in the park
through baseballs and play, with there dads.
And on the
other side of town, a boy is driven down
to rivers.

And in a vacant lot, by the docks
we see a street ball game , with sticks and rocks.
and glitter from broken glass, makes a
wise guy laugh.
