the old man i got to know

one day as we were driving by
i saw a old man sitting on the side
he asked for money, i asked him why
then he looked at me and started to cry

i gave him my change
and i took a seat
he showed me his things
and a old cantine

he asked if i
assumbed it was beer
i answered yes
he said thats not fair

i know i am dirty
and egging is cheap
but i am to old for working
and my wife wont wake from her sleep

i sit on this corner
and pray everyday
that my ife knows i love her
and im glad her pain went away

though i know she is gone
i still miss her so
i can never move on
untill its my time to go
