about

Our ode to the Homeless of the world.

lyrics

See me coming and you cross the street
Never look me in the eye, always down at my feet
Think you know just who I am
But you don’t want to let yourself give a damn

Chorus:
I’m your outside neighbor
come on, brother and let me in
I’m your outside neighbor
please don’t judge me by the shape I’m in
all I’m trying to do is get back on my feet again

got your house and your family car
down at the country club you’re under par
church on Sunday like you think you should
but there’s someone freezing in your neighborhood

(Chorus)

Bridge:
Sleeping in the alley, resting on the steps
I’m digging through the garbage for anything that’s left
staring in your window, running in your shoes
standing on the corner, singing outside blues

young or old, black or white
living wrong or doing everything right
might be a stranger or someone here
might even be you in a couple of years

(Chorus)
