As i was out walkin' on the corner one day
I spied an old hobo in a doorway he lay
His face was all grounded in the cold sidewalk floor
And i guess he been [dead/there(b)] for the whole night or more.
[He was(b)] Only a hobo but one more is gone
Leavin' nobody to sing his sad song
Leavin' nobody to carry him home
[He was(f,b,t)] only a hobo but one more is gone.
A blanket of newspaper covered his head
As the step was his pillow, the street was his bed
One look at his face showed the hard road he'd come
[And] A fistful of [coins/money(w)] showed the [money/the coins(w)] he bummed.
He was only a hobo but one more is gone
Leavin' nobody to sing his sad song
[And] Leavin' nobody to carry him home
[He was(f,b,t)] only a hobo but one more is gone.
Does it take much of a man to see his whole life go down
To look up in the world from a hole in the ground
To wait for your future like a horse that's gone lame
To lie in the gutter and die with no name.
[He was(f)] Only a hobo but one more is gone
Leavin' nobody to sing his sad song
Leavin' nobody to carry him home
He was only a hobo but one more is gone.

As i was out walking on the corner one day
I spied an old hobo in a doorway he lay
His face was all grounded in the cold sidewalk floor
And i guess he been there for the whole night or more.
Only a hobo but one more is gone
Leavin' nobody to sing his sad song
Leavin' nobody to carry him home
He was only a hobo but one more is gone
Only a hobo but one more is gone.
A blanket of newspaper covered up his head
As the step was his pillow and the street was his bed
One look at his face showed the hard road he'd come
A fistful of coins showed the money he bummed.
Yeah, he was only a hobo but one more is gone
Leavin' nobody to sing his sad song
Leavin' nobody to carry him home
He was only a hobo but one more is gone
Only a hobo but one more is gone.
Does it take much of a man to see his whole life go down
To look up in the world from a hole in the ground
To wait for your future like a horse that's gone lame
To lie in the gutter and die with no name.
He was only a hobo but one more is gone
Leavin' nobody to sing his sad song
Leavin' nobody to carry him home
He was only a hobo but one more is gone
Only a hobo but one more is gone.
