Take a look at Tommy On the empty sidewalk Picking up bottles for a five cent win His suit is ragged His hair is shaggy You'd never know what a fine man he's been Now you tell me you got nobody And you're looking for a sign Come and take a walk with me Through the streets of downtown And I'll show you Some old friends of mine Her name is Sandy But she doesn't know it She won't answer if you call out loud She screams with laughter She cries with anger
Picks up her shopping bags and gets lost in the crowd There's nameless people In the heart of downtown Was somebody's lover, was somebody's child In the heat of summer In the cold of winter You pa** right by them But can you spare a dime? There sits Leon By the VA Center He fought for his country Left his soul in Vietnam He thoughts are shaky His limbs are aching They don't see the hero Just another shabby man
