Stan Ridgeway
Only A Hobo

I spied an old hobo, in the doorway he lay
His face was all grounded in the cold sidewalk floor
An' I guess he'd been there for the whole night or more


Chorus:
(he was) only a hobo, but one more is gone
Leaving nobody to sing his sad song
Leaving nobody to carry him home
He was only a hobo, but one more is gone



A blanket of newspaper covered his head
As the step was his pillow, the street was his bed
One look at his face showed the hard road he'd come
An' a fistful of coins showed the money he'd bummed


Chorus repeat


Does it take much of a man to see his whole life go down
To look up in the world from a whole in the ground
To wait for your future like a horse that's gone lame
To lie in the gutter and die with no name


Chorus repeat


Mirror lyrics:

Chorus repeat


To lie in the gutter and die with no name
To wait for your future like a horse that's gone lame
To look up in the world from a whole in the ground
Does it take much of a man to see his whole life go down


Chorus repeat


An' a fistful of coins showed the money he'd bummed
One look at his face showed the hard road he'd come
As the step was his pillow, the street was his bed
A blanket of newspaper covered his head



He was only a hobo, but one more is gone
Leaving nobody to carry him home
Leaving nobody to sing his sad song
(he was) only a hobo, but one more is gone
Chorus:


An' I guess he'd been there for the whole night or more
His face was all grounded in the cold sidewalk floor
I spied an old hobo, in the doorway he lay
