lyrics from “comfortable”
STREET MUSICIAN
this is my acoustic
i like to bang on these here strings
them that stop to listen say that i can really sing
i come here with my tin can and hope you’ll give what’s fair
i am a street musician - thank you kindly for your share!
you all know bob dylan
he started much the same way
big difference between us is that he had something to say
but i don’t see a problem, you’re still waiting on your train
i am a street musician, i got nothin’ to explain
don’t hold your breath coz i won’t go
i will take checks, i will take plastic
i’ll take requests that i don’t know
i’ll take that hotdog if you’re done
i will take anything, i will take anything
yes, i have a day job
now tell me why did you have to ask?
i come down here to sing my songs and forget about all that
i know i’m not james taylor, i ain’t no rolling stone
i am a street musician, and this subway is my own
everybody gotta have a hobby
this one’s mine
it passes the time
brother can you spare a dime?
