Only A Hobo Artist:bob dylan Songs Title:only a hobo As I was out walking on a corner one day, I spied an old hobo, in a doorway he lay. His face was all grounded in the cold sidewalk floor And I guess hed been there for the whole night or more. Only a hobo, but one more is gone Leavin nobody to sing his sad song Leavin nobody to carry him home Only a hobo, but one more is gone A blanket of newspaper covered his head, As the curb was his pillow, the street was his bed. One look at his face showed the hard road hed come And a fistful of coins showed the money he bummed. Only a hobo, but one more is gone Leavin nobody to sing his sad song Leavin nobody to carry him home Only a hobo, but one more is gone Does it take much of a man to see his whole life go down, To look up on the world from a hole in the ground, To wait for your future like a horse thats gone lame, To lie in the gutter and die with no name? Only a hobo, but one more is gone Leavin nobody to sing his sad song Leavin nobody to carry him home Only a hobo, but one more is gone
