lyrics

When you were a young kid
Trying to make your way
They knew where they could find you
By the interstate
Under an overpass
You’d sit and wait
But the world moved on
Didn’t they
Your only possessions
In a garbage bag
Something new disappeared
With every new day
One shirt on your back
They wouldn’t dare take
Somebody tried to once
But you were still awake
That’s why they say
Some people
You just can’t save
When you turned 18
They asked: “Where will you stay?”
You’d been kicked out before
But never that way
Already in college
Cause you’d skipped a grade
To the welfare lineup
It’s all the same
That’s why they say
Some people
You just can’t save
Some people
Just take and take
Now this is your corner
It’s where you stay
No one knows where to find you
They can’t take that away
Cops come and tell you to move
About once a day
Underneath their breath
You can hear them say
Some people
