I woke up early this morning
Somebody was tappin on me
He said, "man, ya best get movin."
Ya just can't sleep out on the street
So you see me on the corner
Same old boots down on my feet
And i know that i ain't picture perfect, baby
But i sure could use some food to eat
Yeah, and i'll, i'll wash your windows, shine your shoes
Ya give me something i can do
Well i'm just tryin to make my way
Spendin my time here on earth
Lookin for things that have more worth
Than all this stuff you think you need
Now you see me at that stop light
And you quickly turn and look away
And i don't think that it's mighty strange, baby
How fast you want that light to change
But you might say that i'm just lazy
And i won't tell you that it ain't true, babe
But while you sit there in that office, girl
Yeah, gonna have a better day than you
Yes, it's true and i'll, i'll wash your windows, shine your shoes
Give me something i can do
Well i'm just tryin to make my way
No, no, na no, spendin my time here on earth
Lookin for things that have more worth
Than all this stuff you think you need, yeah
Well i'll, i'll wash your windows, shine your shoes
Give me something i can do
Well i'm just tryin to make my way
No, no, spendin my time here on earth
Lookin for things that have more worth
Than all this stuff you think you need
No, no, no, na, no, no
Do, do, do , do, do, do, do, do, do
No, no, no, na, na
Do, do, do, do, do, do, doot, do, do
No, no, na, na, na, na
Do, do, do, do, doot, do, do, do, do
No, no, na, na, no
