Harry Hippie

Now everybody claims that

They want the best things out of life

But not everyone, not everyone

Wanna got through the toils and strifes

Like this particular fella walks around

All day long singin'

Sha na na na na na na na na naa

Harry Hippie, lies asleep in the shade

Life don't bug him 'cause he thinks he's got it made

He never worry about nothin' in particular

Oh, he might even sell Free Press on sunset

I'd like to help a man when he's down

But I can't help him much

When he's sleepin' on the ground

He's like a bottle in water

Harry just floats through life

Walks around all day long singin' this song

Whoa, whoa, whoa, yeah

Mary Hippie, she's Harry's lady

Panhandles pennies just to feed Harry's baby

She can lie down a story so incredible

Man, you wanna help her

Take the food home and put it on the table

I'd like to help a man when he's down

But I can't help ya Harry

If you wanna sleep on the ground

Sorry Harry, oh you're too much weight to carry around

But he still walks around all day singin' this song

Sha na na na, sha na na na na na

Na sha na na na na na na naa

Sweet child, street child, tell me where will you be goin'

When Old Man Winter gets his horn and starts blowin'?

Will you hang around L. A or hitch a ride on the freeway?

Meet an old familiar face in a new place

I'd like to help a man when he's down

But how can I help him if he's somewhere outta town?

Sorry Harry, I think I'm gonna put you down

Sha na na na, sha na na na na

Sha na na na na na na naa

Everybody help me sing this song, oh yeah

Sha na na na, sha na na na na

Sha na na na na na na na
