Its a cold night said the city bum
c4s2412d12148ess5
With a blanket on his shoulder
c4s2412d12148ess5
Sitting by the Delaware
c4s2412d12148ess5
And the damp air gets colder
c4s2412d12148ess5
Morning is not even close
c4s2412d12148ess5
Thats when the church doors open
c4s2412d12148ess5
The night is long lonely night
c4s2412d12148ess5
But still hes not alone
c4s2412d12148ess5
c4s2412d12148ess5
When I was young look above
c4s2412d12148ess5
The heavens game me hope and spirit
c4s2412d12148ess5
Having lost my job and my true love
c4s2412d12148ess5
This bottle gives me spirit
c4s2412d12148ess5
c4s2412d12148ess5
Here this says the policeman
c4s2412d12148ess5
Kicking him from his warm grate
c4s2412d12148ess5
No bums here curse his soul
c4s2412d12148ess5
The cop was shot later that night on patrol
c4s2412d12148ess5
Morning comes
c4s2412d12148ess5
And the church was open
c4s2412d12148ess5
But it was full
c4s2412d12148ess5
There was no hoping
c4s2412d12148ess5
For some food or hot coffee
c4s2412d12148ess5
To greet this bitter day
c4s2412d12148ess5
c4s2412d12148ess5
In winter time
c4s2412d12148ess5
Spare some change the businessman
c4s2412d12148ess5
Spat and walked away
c4s2412d12148ess5
Later on in the businessmans day
c4s2412d12148ess5
His money was gone when his wallet misplaced
c4s2412d12148ess5
A cabbie passed mean and fast
c4s2412d12148ess5
Pushed a horn and gave a blast
c4s2412d12148ess5
Sprayed the bum with dirty slush
c4s2412d12148ess5
The bum was angry but he stayed hush
c4s2412d12148ess5
Two blocks later the cabbie rushed
c4s2412d12148ess5
The red light flashed
c4s2412d12148ess5
The city bus smashed the cab against the pole
c4s2412d12148ess5
The cab was gone and the cabbie was crushed
c4s2412d12148ess5
Day was fading and night came on
c4s2412d12148ess5
The shelters for nowhere is home
c4s2412d12148ess5
The bum cries lonesome tears
c4s2412d12148ess5
Tasted stale and bitter like beer
c4s2412d12148ess5
c4s2412d12148ess5
When he reached his cache
c4s2412d12148ess5
His blankets were gone
c4s2412d12148ess5
Stolen away
c4s2412d12148ess5
The bum cried more tears
c4s2412d12148ess5
The night grew old
c4s2412d12148ess5
He shivered still
c4s2412d12148ess5
Drew one more breath
c4s2412d12148ess5
I heard him moan
c4s2412d12148ess5
He passed that night at five am
c4s2412d12148ess5
The night was four below zero
c4s2412d12148ess5
The coldest night of the season
c4s2412d12148ess5
Without reason his blankets were stolen
c4s2412d12148ess5
A gypsy girl of fourteen sensed a strange eruption
c4s2412d12148ess5
In a crystal ball as clear as day
c4s2412d12148ess5
She watched a thief walk away
c4s2412d12148ess5
With two warm blankets underneath the bridge
c4s2412d12148ess5
He fell asleep the last deed he did
c4s2412d12148ess5
The thief in a rest rolled off a ledge
c4s2412d12148ess5
And drowned in a frozen cold
c4s2412d12148ess5
c4s2412d12148ess5
The gypsy girl she looked again
c4s2412d12148ess5
Into her crystal ball
c4s2412d12148ess5
She seen the bum take one last breath
c4s2412d12148ess5
He died and let his hair fall
c4s2412d12148ess5
Knowing the truth all powerful
c4s2412d12148ess5
Yet unsuspecting man
c4s2412d12148ess5
That same man
c4s2412d12148ess5
Thiefed upon, robbed upon, spat upon
c4s2412d12148ess5
Gone for all eternity
c4s2412d12148ess5
The gypsy girl curses society
c4s2412d12148ess5
The poor old bum
c4s2412d12148ess5
A burden and a bother
c4s2412d12148ess5
Was my only father
c4s2412d12148ess5
