Samiam - Mr. Walker lyrics

rate me

the old man is out by nine

his wife died a year ago

always wearing his sunday clothes

never seen him talk to anyone

liquor stores and churches

there's one on every corner

thanks for all my daily bread

a can of food, bottle of wine,

and a 99 cent pack of cigarettes

he's a solid piece of stone

he aint got much backbone

he's a solid piece of stone

and he's got to get back to the ghetto

a dusty old bone

for the dogs to swallow whole

he likes to go his way alone

watch them pick apart this old lone soul

he's a solid piece of stone

he aint got much backbone

he's a solid piece of stone

and he's got to get back to the ghetto

so it goes, he's alone, they pick apart his old lone soul (2x)

so it goes, he's alone, my life, my hole

he's a solid piece of stone

he aint got much backbone

he's a solid piece of stone

and he's got to get back to the ghetto

he's a solid piece of stone

and he's got to get back to the ghetto
