The Wino Has Something to Say

The wino has something to say

so listen and don't walk away

He's really a pal and he won't steal your gal

The wino has something to say

The wino was once a big man

He sports a tattoo from Japan

He'll tell you his name if you play the sad game

The wino was once a big man

A traveller, a dreamer, a poor man, a schemer

He knows about life much too well

The streets of the city are alley's of pity

Really his heaven and hell

The wino cools off in the rain

He dreams of expensive champagne

A bottle a day keeps the cruel world away

The wino cools off in the rain

A traveller, a dreamer, a poor man, a schemer

He knows about life much too well

The streets of the city are alley's of pity

Really his heaven and hell

The wino has something to say

So listen, when you pass his way
