[Verse 1]
It's kinda hard being a bum in this town
Where the kids run wild, running all around
We go by behind without a sound
And we all got stories to tell
Put a penny in the cup, you might hear us moan
I'm just a dollar short of catching the Grey Hound home
And God bless you sir, you won't see me no more
'Cause I'll be drunk behind the Jiffy store
[Chorus]
But I'm gonna get straight if it's the last thing I can bare
I'd get my life together if someone would care
And if I should die before my time is through
Tell all the people who I was
(Aye...)
[Verse 2]
On a bench, sour stench, clutchin' my booze
A pair of Swiss cheese socks and tore up shoes
Whiskey breath, dumpster chef, next to Taco Bell
I dropped my aspirations down a wishing well
Drunken stance, piss my pants, piano key teeth
All these things will blind you from the man beneath
I'm not a fool, I been to school, I've read Sun Tzu
You see, us bums are people too
It's kinda hard being a bum in this town
