Nanci Griffith - Down 'n' Outer lyric

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

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

I'm 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 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

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

I'm just a bank account away from America

I'm just a bank account away from America
