Beggar standin' on the corner sing your song, sing it for a dime
Bring them all the pain you carried down the line
Your music's flying past their ears
Glowing through your troubles for the hurt to follow
Out of tune ravings
Of the crippled crow, movin' down the ladder slow
We're your friends hon and we will help you
And the cup of tin you carry is just the ticket to get you in
Beggar standin' on the corner dry your eyes, your time is nigh
The tears you're tasting are only salty times
Your music's lasted through the years
Rising like a bubble those who hurt will follow
The out of tune ravings
Of the crippled crow movin' down the ladder slow
We're your friends hon and we will help you
The crown of thorns you're wearin' is just the ticket to get you in
The out of tune ravings
Of the crippled crow movin' down the ladder slow
We're your friends hon and we will help you
The out of tune ravings
Of the crippled crow movin' down the ladder slow
