On the sidewalks of Savannah
|
There's an old man ragged and blind
|
He don't beg, an' he don't steal
|
And he don't fool with wine
|
With an old guitar in his wrinkled hands
|
A thousand songs in his mind
|
You can't keep your heart from lovin'
|
The song man when you hear him cry...
|
|
Chorus:
|
"Song Man, one song for a dime
|
I got songs that'll make ya happy
|
And songs that'll make ya cry
|
I got a special poor man's blues
|
Two for the price of one
|
It won't cost you a thing to hear me
|
sing my favorite gospel song....
|
'Lord, I'm comin' home, Lord I'm comin' home
|
I've been a fightin'the devil too long
|
Lord I'm comin' home"
|
|
All the old timers in Savannah,
|
Have known him all of their lives
|
And they all say, that he's done seen
|
A hundred years go by
|
With an old dog he calls Govenor John
|
He starts at the break of dawn
|
And he don't stop as long as someone
|
Wants to hear him sing a song
|
|
(chorus)
|
|
Lord, I'm comin' home, Lord, I'm comin' home......
|
