His hat between his knees
They are in a hurry
No one takes notice of him
It's cold here in the city
His fingers are stiff and numb
He tries to count the money
But it slips away
There ain't no place that he calls home
They always chase him away
No chance for a brighter day
All day on the run, all night on the loose
He wants to get away
All day on the run, all night on the loose
He can't escape at all
He is dreaming of better days
Just memories so far away
They can't take his pride
No wine can drown it
It helps to forget
And helps him bear the pain
There ain't no place that he calls home
They always chase him away
No chance for a brighter day
All day on the run, all night on the loose
He wants to get away
All day on the run, all night on the loose
He can't escape at all
He's sitting there in silence His hat between his knees They are in a hurry No one takes notice of him It's cold here in the city His fingers are stiff and numb He tries to count the money But it slips away There ain't no place that he calls home They always chase him away No chance for a brighter day All day on the run, all night on the loose He wants to get away All day on the run, all night on the loose He can't escape at all He is dreaming of better days Just memories so far away They can't take his pride No wine can drown it It helps to forget And helps him bear the pain There ain't no place that he calls home They always chase him away No chance for a brighter day All day on the run, all night on the loose He wants to get away All day on the run, all night on the loose He can't escape at all Explain Request ×
