[Verse 1]
On the park bench I slept on
Raindrops are falling on the newspapers covering me
I hear early morning motors
And I know the world is waking for the dawn
But my mind's down a dark alley
Somewhere last night you loved me
And in the early morning chill, my arms remember still
But I'm dropping like a stone lonesome to the bone

[Chorus]
The sun is roughly rising on the roofs of Stagger town
The time for sweating poison out is just now coming around
The high time of last midnight is over with and gone
Leaving me to be lonesome to the bone

[Verse 2]
I walked away the wind blows
And any way the wind goes will be good enough for me
The streets are loud and crowded
But I walk my weary way lost and alone
Your hot breath and your laughter
Keep flashing through my mind to warm me
But the naked light of day soon makes it fade away
And I'm dropping like a stone lonesome to the bone
[Chorus]
