Well, I woke up this morning with the cold water
Woke up this morning with the cold water
With the cold

Police are at the station and they don't look friendly
Police are at the station and they don't look friendly
Well they don't

Blind or crippled, sharp or dull
I'm reading the Bible by a 40 watt bulb
What price freedom, dirt is my rug
Well, I sleep like a baby with the snakes and the bugs

Well, the stores are open but I ain't got no dollar
The stores are open but I ain't got no dollar
Well I ain't

Found an old dog and he seems to like me
Found an old dog and he seems to like me
Well he seems

Seen them fellows with the cardboard signs
Scraping up a little dollar to buy a bottle of wine
Pregnant women and the Vietnam vets
Beggin' on the freeway, 'bout as hard as it gets
Slept in the graveyard, it was cool and still
Slept in the graveyard it was cool and still
It was cool

Slept all night in the cedar grove
I was born to ramble, born to rove
Some men are searching for the Holy Grail
Ain't nothing sweeter than riding the rails

I look 47 but I'm 24
They shooed me away from here the time before
Turned their backs and they locked their doors
I'm watching TV in the window of a furniture store

Well I woke up this morning with the cold water
Woke up this morning with the cold water
With the cold
