Nanci Griffith - Down'n'Outer Lyrics (Nanci Griffith) I once was a lot like you We share a dream I couldn't make come true I was a child who wrote my name Across a frosted window pane And there are jobs that I might hold If they'd just let me through the door Without a shower and new clothes That I can ill afford Chorus Can you spare the time? Can you spare a dime? Can you look me in the eye? I'm down'n'out And I am lonely Do you ever think of me on Sunday? No, I don't live across the water Hey, I live right here on this corner Just a bank account away from America I won't hurt your family I don't want a house there on your street And I know that you think that I'm As lazy as a hobo's sigh Now, you call me down'n'outer If there's a way out I've not found 'er I only want to earn my piece of America Chorus I'm just a bank account away from America |
