The man walks down from the 99, |
|
He's got holes in his pockets, he's got too much style, |
|
He's going down, down to town, |
|
Just to meet some pals and to get a bit high, |
|
Going back by the 79, |
|
So much things on his troubled mind, |
|
He is full of whiskey and beer, |
|
And soda and wine. |
|
So he gets high, so he gets high, |
|
So he gets high tonight, |
|
*And so he gets high, so he gets high, |
|
And so he gets high tonight. |
|
He's not everybody he thinks he's the one, |
|
Sitting on the pavement out of time, |
|
*And* he won't listen to all those swines, |
|
He'll break his bottle and fight, |
|
The man walks down from the 99, |
|
He's got holes in his pockets, he's got too much style, |
|
He's going down, down to town, |
|
Just to meet some pals and to get a bit high, |
|
So he gets high so he gets high, |
|
So he gets high tonight, |
|
He's got dream in right eye, |
|
And hope in the left one, |
|
You have a lover for tonight, |
|
He's got music 'til he dies |
